Another Bump in this Road

Well, they haven't started Ryan's chemo yet. It may be tomorrow or not until Wednesday. The doctor believes that the infection might be coming from Ryan's port and so they have scheduled surgery to take it out. They are going to begin chemo in an IV in his arm, but we aren't sure if they will start that before they take the port out or not. Ryan will have to get another port put in, but they probably will not do that until he comes for round 5.

On a positive note, Ryan feels really good, although he is stuck here in the hospital. He is keeping up well with his Wright State classes.

Pray that the chemo will get started as soon as it is safe to begin. Pray that our spirits stay up with this minor setback and that we get back on track with things real soon.

On another note, I received tickets for the benefit for Ryan, sponsored by the Versailles FFA Alumni. The tickets are $6.50, I forget what you get to eat . . . my mind is going elsewhere. They are also having a mobile blood drive that day. This will all take place in the Versailles High School parking lot.
