Finally feeling better from the arm thrombolysis, the multiple procedures that fixed the blood clots in his arm and that led to the eventual discovery of his tumor.
A visit from Daryl, who has been a great shoulder to lean on for both of us.
A get well card from adorable Ally, the daughter of Chris's coworker, Joe. Joe was bummed that he couldn't visit (he always had to be at the store in Chris's absence) but his wife brought their two children by to see us. I think Ally made a second card just recently.
A visit to the lab for a blood test. Chris goes regularly so they can manage his blood thinners properly. He's no longer afraid of needles!
I can't remember if this was before or after his bone biopsy. I can only imagine it was before, because he probably wouldn't have let me snap a photo after. Definitely the worst (most painful) procedure so far, we're hoping he won't have to do it again. Luckily it didn't take long. If it's going to be painful, it should be short.
Chemo Number 1! I tried to be discreet so I didn't offend others there, I think there was only one guy left when I took this. The room has a central large desk for all of the nurses and then chairs all around all four sides (and some rooms behind that). The nurses and staff have been wonderful so far, and we're so lucky to have wonderful doctors as well.
