Day Three - DONE! August 28
Sorry for the late post today, I got sidetracked on other things after we got home and just realized I hadn't let Beverly's adoring public know how she is today. She had her third radiation treatment and chemo today and did fine. After that, we got to see our favorite doctor and his resident. The resident saw us first and that was a bit overwhelming for Beverly because there were many rapid fire questions, but she survived it. After that, Dr. McFavorite saw her and answered several questions for us:
- Yes, she can go to Florida this weekend. Yippee!!
- She can eat ANYTHING she wants...and get this - he wants her to try to have at least one milkshake a day made with the highest calorie ingredients possible (that is a dream diet for some of us!) because she's lost a little weight over the last month or so.
- The on-again, off-again confusion is part of the process and is likely to linger for a while...and she's doing a great job of managing it.
So, another day down! 39 chemos and 27 radiations to go!!!
Tomorrow we are leaving for Florida directly from Emory so there will probably not be a post until Saturday.
Dr. McFavorite...I love it!!!!! Yeah, Beverly...you are doing GRRRRREAT!!!!!!! Coming to Florida AND getting to drink high calorie milkshakes...Boy, are you lucky!!!!! :) And, in regards to the confusion...I'm here to say...We are ALL confused most of the time...except for Aunt Dot!!!!! I'm NOT kidding!!!!! Cannot wait to see you Sat. in JAX!!!!!!!! LOVE YOU, Pat
