Day 2 after chemo

... and things have been surprisingly upbeat and good! Since early June, there has never been a single time that Husband has been up and about the day after chemo! However, since switching back to the original drugs (Oxaliplatin + Xeloda) for this last chemo, he has been so active I can't believe it!!!!!

Yesterday (Saturday), up early, medicated, on his Mac - surfing, came with me to the supermarket, then to the deli (where we also had brunch), then back home for a while, then HE suggested we go visit my parents, so off we went to see them and my sister and her family (my parents and my sister live just 3 doors apart, so it is easy to visit both :-p ), then back home again when he took some time to cook chicken stew, then he was watching TV, surfing the net in between, wandering round the house when his back hurt too much to sit, and eventually to bed at 11pm! Now, if that is not an active day for him, I don't know what is!

And today he wants to go out and about too! I hope the cancer recedes as fast as he has recovered from the Erbitux effects!

Please continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers, that he keeps improving and the cancer keeps reducing.

Till next time, stay safe, stay HEALTHY!
