Round 5 - The Trip Home


Wednesday May 8th, 2013

We weren't antsie about going home, but more concerned that we were educated enough to manage at home. Team MGH set up practice shots of Neulasta with an orange and an empty needle. They gave us fact sheets to read about all the medicines that I would be on and a complete written break down of the chemo treatment that I had just gone through.

Time to leave was nearing and I started to extend my thanks to Team MGH and say goodby for now to those that made our stay both pleasant and comfortable.

Home was a sight for sore eyes. The Neulasta was at the doorstep waiting for us and the comforts of home could start to settle in so I could go through all the paperwork, set up a medicine dosage plan and figure out what we were going to eat for dinner.

France and I came up with a plan that would layout my day while she went to work and I would see how I felt about going to work Thursday morning.

I walked 3 miles on the Gazelle throughout the remainder of the day and took an Ativan to assure that I would sleep.
