Well, RADIATION COMPLETE...
one phase done!
He's doing great! No side effects so far. He just amazes me! Dr Abidi (the attending doc) said he's doing superb!!
And of course today's last trip to the ROC...(radiation oncology center) was the smoothest, fastest trip of them all. Some trips took up to 3 hours, most of which was waiting for transport to pick him up. Today though was the perfect ending!
Tomorrow is chemo day. VP-16 or aka Etoposide is the drug they will use. It will be infused over 4 hours, along with 4 - 1 liter bags of saline. All the fluid will help flush out the chemo to protect his organs ... but hopefully not make Brett float away!
Brett's room has started a transition today... posters, pictures, words of inspiration, signs are now hanging all over the room! Thanks Claudia, Mary Sue, Ashleigh, Stefeni, Anthony, Bubba and everyone else who are in the photos. His room looks a little brighter now! I'm a little concerned about how happy he was to get the poster with photos of Shania Twain, Megan Fox and the Almay cosmetic model on it. Yes, I'm a little jealous! But I'll get over it
We got a quick text from Tyler today, saying the first shots went A-OK. Also good news! Good work Tyler!
I should go... it's getting late and we are not sure what time his treatment will start tomorrow. They say they start it in the morning... how early is anyone's guess.
I will post update tomorrow. Keep the prayers coming, they are obviously working.
here's the address if anyone wants to send him an old fashion note or card... or picture!
