We got discharged this morning as we had hoped. Dave is doing fabulous, though fatigued of course. The doc would like us to come back in 6-8 weeks and dangled the caveat that it would only be 3 days! hahaha He said he just wanted to get Dave started on his maintenance therapy which are less toxic drugs and good for his bones. So we went ahead and scheduled it.
I wrote a letter to an oncologist that I had heard good things about in a different medical group here in California, hoping we could work with him instead of the ones we have been dealing with. (Its been frustrating... another story... ) Anyway, I was very excited to get a call from his office with an appointment and learned some even more wonderful things about him, so I'm extremely happy about that and hopeful that we will get a long just fine. We meet him Oct 8th. If all goes as I hope, he will be our "at home" oncologist and treat Dave with the maintenance therapy over the next 3 years. I have a lot of paperwork to collect for him and copies to make so he has all the information he needs.
I still haven't really gotten used to the new site yet, but thank you all for your support and prayers... as always, I rely on you for moral support and you never let me down!
