So today my dad completed his third session of chemotherapy. He handled the treatment in his usual cheerful fashion (*note sarcasm here*). My mom sent us an email while he was undergoing chemo, and he was sound asleep as usual. I don't know why he complains about this stuff when he gets to sleep through it?!?!? (Just kidding dad!). My parents finally moved back into their house and my dad spent the weekend cutting down trees with Harold (the across the street neighbor and family friend) and getting the electricity fixed. I called to check on him this evening and he was visiting with other people in the neighborhood and talking to babies instead of talking to me. I get it dad..I'm no longer cute and cuddly.
Next steps: my dad has a follow-up appointment I think on June 13th to check his blood and his body to see how the chemotherapy has effected the cancer. He believes that he is already cured and that the next three sessions of chemo that are already scheduled are completely unnecessary. Hopefully the doctor will have some form of good news at the next visit (*fingers crossed*).
My uncle Timmy is coming to visit my parents this weekend and my dad should be almost recovered by the time my uncle arrives. I should be able to visit my dad soon as well. When I do, I will make sure to get a picture of the new head piece he's been wearing. Until then....
Thank´s for doing that lovely blog about your Dad. I´m Laura from Barcelona, his Spanish teacher and I hope his (them) friend. We (my family and also his classmates)miss him very much. It´so nice and fresh knowing all the process by you. :))))
