Round 4 - Chemo Day 4


Tuesday May 7th, 2013

Today's plan is to stay on  top of exercise, eating and hydration.

With the constipation behind me I've got to make a leap forward to make up the slack.

I've met a few wonderful people here at Team MGH's Cancer Center. Truly amazing people. I've stopped to chat while walking my mile around the halls and I've been humbled from what I seen, the fight in the other fighters there and their families.

I can't thank Team MGH enough! Their dedication, expertise, tenderness and knowledge because it really goes a long way for a lot of people other than myself.

Some people are not that strong for reasons beyond their control and to watch them fight their disease is moving. To share 5 minutes learning about someone in all their happiness when they may not have 10 days left is moving. To put a smile on an exhausted face as I pace by moved me.

Now I get ready to end my first cycle around 3 am and find out about discharge planning in the morning.

All the nurses have been more than helpful providing us all the info that we'd need to put our plan into action at home.
