Third lot of chemo

Less than one minute read time.

My Dad went into hospital Thursday morning for his third lot of chemo, which has ended up with him getting his first two chemo drugs in a drip and the other in tablet form due to my Dad taking a reaction to it. This has allowed my Dad to come home and take the rest of his chemo at home, so he now just has to go to hospital as a day patient. Im a bit confused about all this as Im not sure does the treatment work the same is it as effective as the drip? My Dad quite happy he is home Mum a bit upset as he is a wee monkey for taking his medication at home and you have to keep at him to take it so you feel you are moaning at him all the time. I love him so much don't want anything going wrong.

    Hi Shirley,

    You and your Mum make sure your Dad takes his medicine when hes home, the only person he it will effect is himself. So you both keep nagging him and make sure he takes it. if he dosent the only one he will be hurting is himself.So keep nagging.

    Take care and be safe Big Hugs Love Sarsfield.xxx

    Thanks Sarsfield

    Itsso hard you feel he is so ill and all we do is nag him to take his tablets, I know its going to help him in the long run but its hard nagging him when he is s ill. But Im going to keep nagging him as I want to have him for as long as I can have him I love him so much.

    Thankyou and take care LoveShirley xxx
