Round II

Initially the first dose of chemo left Larry nauseous and tired last week, so we're hoping he'll fare better with yesterday's treatment.  The weekly blood test confirmed his platelets were extremely low; for some reason the count needs to stay at 100 or better.  His was at 101--not good.  If it reaches any lower, the Doc intervenes and decides whether to stop the chemo until it meets the required count.  Larry dropped six pounds in one week; I hoped that pattern doesn't continue through the next three months!  He had a good night's sleep and seems OK this morning--we're praying for a good week of that.  One day at a time...
