Today is Day 1 for Nathan's chemotherapy program. As I said he got the first part (spinal fluid injection) yesterday but today he received the first two medicines. He did really good swallowing the five pills (steroids) for the first time and then the chemo drug was given through an IV. We have a few days of that before the big milestone days of Day 8, 15 and 29. So far Nathan is in great spirits, with a few owly moments ... "it's my skin" has become a common refrain anytime someone (especially a nurse) wants to do something for him.
Additionally, we have been told that the first information about a two year program was incorrect. It is now a 3 1/2 year protocol that he is on. Those five phases (hopefully only 5) will take up the 3.5 years.
If you have any questions you can email me at my work email which I check at least once a day.
