One More Under Our Belt

I was able to pick up Jim today and take him home! This week of chemotherapy has finally come to an end. Jim is worn out but feeling better than the last time he had chemotherapy. He did develop a rash on his leg that is bothersome to him. He laid low pretty much all day. He is due back to the doctor's office on Tuesday. We expect that barring any complications, he will go back in for his final week of chemotherapy in the Consolidation Phase on January 13. For now, we will watch him closely as his blood counts will probably drop some over the next week or so.

Thanks for your continued interest. Please pray that Jim's rash would resolve quickly and the itching would be relieved. Pray also that Jim would remain healthy during this time.

Looking forward to celebrating Christmas this week with family and friends.
