Day after cycle eight:

The reduction of oxyplatinin made a huge difference! Although very tired he has an appetite:) french toasts and watermelon am
Lunch smoothie and grilled ham sandwich and he asked for sausage and saurkraut for dinner with a green salad and chocolate milk!
Hes drinking lots of healthy fluids.
He is leaning into resting today rather than fighting to stay up and active. He dozed hard all day and awoke to eat and watch the Rio olympics

Cycle eight august 5, 2016

Here we are on a beautiful day in August.
The blood draw took a second option: a draw from the lefthand while the port got a dose of 'draino'.
The number all look good according to Dr C.
Dan reported that neuropathy was his only concern and showed two cuts on hus numbed fingertips. Dr C will reduce oxyplatinin. As it might be an indication of sctual nerve damage which would last for years and not be reversible.

Jade was. His nurse. He stated feeling crabby and decided to catch a nap so i am reporting.
We finished up about 6:00 and were home by 6:30. I heated mac n cheese with a sausage and broccoli which tasted good ( no broccoli for Dan! He doesnt want to spoil a good food)
We watched the opining ceremonies. Dan in having one of the best night sleeps ever.
