Day Negative 3

"AJ's the greatest!"  When we were dating, Andrew's brothers used to tease me when I said this. But today I can honestly say AJ's the greatest. He woke up to a ton of nausea but rallied, intent on finding me a place to swim. Together we checked out a local YMCA that will be perfect for my swimming addiction. I have to drive through a bit of a sketchy area to get there (which is pretty much the case in all directions surrounding Hopkins). But if I get I trouble, I can always pull into the "Sought Out Redeemed Hope Center and Church" that I drive right by. That made us both smile.
Back to AJ - we got him on stronger anti-nausea meds and they make him sleepy, so he's off to bed. Luckily, he still has a voracious appetite!
We may not have much to report over the weekend. Chemo continues for about 3 hrs both Sat and Sun. We expect increased fatigue. Monday will be the next big day when AJ has total body irradiation (sounds scary, right?) and all of his immediate family arrives (sounds a bit less scary, right?).
Again, we cannot say enough thanks to all who are helping out on the home front! I sound like a broken record, but we couldn't do this without you all.
