I'm back in Martha Jefferson Hospital as of 9am yesterday morning. Yesterday was a little bit of a wash - we didn't start get the chemo infusions going until around 3pm. This will push my release day back to Wednesday - an extra day here that I don't look forward to with relish.
Yesterday was a little rough, I've been a little anxious of late, and coming back in here really threw me a bit. Now I've been hooked up to a bag filled with various chemo agents which are Orange. They've been in now for a little less than a day, and I can feel the fog setting in.
I'm not always the clearest thinker, but the chemo, as I think I described in a previous post, makes me feel like I'm way out of it - in a tunnel or cave or something. It's mild now, but I'll keep an eye on it and see how it improves, or not.
While I'm in the same room as before, I have this cool new 'auto adjusting' bed. It's just like a regular hospital bed, you adjust it as usual - turn it into a seat, or raise the feet, etc.. But sitting on it, it inflates and deflates at random intervals in response to pressure. This can be a little disconcerting, but once you get used to the bed adjusting for you, it's not too bad. It saves a lot of rolling around trying to get comfortable.
My family, Jeff, Jane, and the girls are at the Orange County fair today. Afterwards they're coming to visit. I'm looking forward to that.
And thanks to friends bringing food to Jane and the kids (who will, in turn, bring it to me). We really appreciate all your help.
