Joe's been in his hospital room since noon yesterday, and JUST NOW got his implant port (Power Port!) for the chemo. It's a semi-permanent direct line to his bloodstream. This will prevent the nurses from having to find a vein every time they give him a treatment, so it's a good thing. Joe's not thrilled with the night in the hospital for no reason, but seems to be recovering from the port implant well. He's wolfing down a hospital breakfast that's been sitting out for 5 hours, so he must be REALLY hungry!
I think chemo will start today, but will keep you posted. Love to all.
Erin, Thanks for taking good care of Joe and keeping everyone up to speed. We're all pulling for him. Give him my best.
