June 24th day 3 of second round.

Day 3 started OK but then we hit the first traffic jam of the summer. Some motorcycle hit a deer is what we hear happened. The traffic was backed up for at least three miles on I-469 and the same for I-69. So everyone headed for the side streets that we use to get to the cancer center. Thank God we know the back roads, being Harley riders, we were able to get around traffic with only minor inconvenience. We talked to friends that were in traffic for 45 minutes. In Fort Wayne that's an eternity.





My BS was 152 today so I gave myself 4 units and just had a small cereal and a piece of wheat toast. I then took one of the new nausea pills and went to the center. When I got home my BS shot to 257. I don't know which medicine they gave me shot it up, but up it went. It was down to 177 at 12:30, so I hope it was just a temporary spike.





It takes less and less time as the week goes on because they give me nausea medication the first three days and then that's it until the next cycle. Tomorrow should take about an hour, today it was just under two hours.





We are getting everything ready for Maura, Darrin, and Riley's arrival. Don't worry though Darrin there is still plenty left for you to do. Everyday Brian looks to see what you and he can do as opposed to what Brian and I can do. I've got cancer you know. So bring your big boy pants and we will keep you busy.

I was going to finish this last night but fell asleep at 9pm until 10:30 so I just went up and went to bed. That new pill is very potent as to sleep.

It's early thursday and I need to go to Chemo, By for now
