Chemo #3

So, I had chemo today. We got there at 8:15 am and were done at 12:30. The pre drugs (Atavan and some anti-nausea thing) made me pretty drowsy and I slept most of the time while I was there. Morry was there for most of the time except when he and the kids went to get h1n1 vaccine shots. While they were doing that my mom sat with me.

After chemo Morry and I at at Chedds, a grilled cheese restaurant. Morry got a grilled cheese and I got a a grilled “Yoga Teacher” sandwich with turkey, cheese, spinach, avocado, and Italian dressing. It was really good. We had a nice relaxing lunch.

When we got home Evan had just gotten home from school and we put the boys down for naps.

I wasn’t that tired since I had slept through most of chemo. I tried to take advantage of the quiet afternoon and got a few things done. I wanted to get some more things done before I start feeling bad. My mom and I wrapped all of the presents. It feels good to have that done.

For dinner, Sonya, from the Mom’s club brought dinner over. Evan and Avery (her daughter) played together for a little bit while they were here. Dinner was good. Those dinners have been great!

The Steelers game is on now so Morry and the boys are upstairs in the game room watching TV. Morry had been watching the games downstairs, but he thought that TV was bad luck and decided to move back upstairs to the TV that won last year’s Super Bowl for the Steelers.

Well, the next few days probably won’t be so pleasant from me. I will continue to check email, but probably won’t write back for a few days.

We are still having a hard time figuring out how to keep Evan in bed. Today for naps we let him sleep in the top bunk of his bunk bed for the first time. He took a good nap. We’ll try it again tonight and see what happens.

Here’s a little video describing my day today and the weekend to come. At one point Evan and Noah join me in the video as well. Go here to see it or look below.
