Home Again

Well, as of late last night, Ryan is home from his 5th trip to the hospital! He had to finish a 22 hour bag of chemo that started Friday night around 10:00. Around 6 yesterday he was sure that it would be finished around 8 and that he should get to go home. He finally convinced his nurse to call the doctor and see what he said. The doctor on call decided that as long as his vitals were ok, he could go home. The nurse didn't think he'd be done until 9 though.

Finally, at 10:15 we were all finished and ready to go home! It was a very late night and so this morning seemed to come early as well. He has been hit with a little nausea this time, more than usual I think. He is also very tired, but hasn't even been finished with chemo for 24 hours yet.

Please pray that in a day or so he will begin to not feel so tired. He is scheduled for a lumbar puncture on Wednesday and will have to get one 2 hour bag of outpatient chemo probably Thursday or Friday.

Last Sunday was baby day at church, luckily Ryan was able to be home and we could have Aubrey there together.

  1. You guys, Aubrey is so precious! What a beautiful little girl! She is so bright-eyed and happy. What a blessing! Glad you were able to go to church together and share the day, and we're glad to see Ryan is home from another round. That's a blessing as well. Sorry to hear there was more nausea this time. Hopefully that won't happen again. God bless you all with a pleasant time home together.

    Hope you can take Aubrey out for a walk through Poultry Days and enjoy some chicken!

    Take care and many blessings,
    Jill S.
