We were thrilled that the doctor Monday was true to his word and had us discharged by 8:30 Monday morning. That was beyond awesome and meant that after we got home, I could go into work instead of missing a whole day. (We are trying to work as much as possible knowing that we will be gone so much later on.)
Clayton's reaction to this past round of chemo is still stumping us. It is unlike any other to date. Each day is something new. Tuesday he seemed to be having some urine retention for a longer period of time then normal to the point that I rushed home form work to check on him. Then today, I once again came home for a long lunch to check on him because his scalp is red. Not his face , but his scalp and his hairline. They keep turning red and we have no idea why. We were thinking it might have something to do with nausea, because in the hospital, his head would turn red when he got nauseas, but he hasn't been very nauseas at home. Plus on top of the red head, he started itching today? We still have no definite answers but we are constantly talking with doctors and nurses to make sure we don't need to be worried about anything.
Despite everything, Clayton seems to be in a good mood! He is happy and playful and walks around the house babbling.
When we're not in the hospital and I'm working and cooking and cleaning and hanging out with the family, I definitely get distracted from the blog, but I'll try not to let too big of a gap pass by in between posts.
