Chemo & Steroids

Today we had our appointment with our Pediatric Hematologist/Oncologist. Brian has 30 weeks of chemo and steroids ahead of him. His steroids are 4 to 5 times stronger than the one he took last go around. Brian knows just how difficult this is on him and he remembers how much he hates chemo. He was so tuckered out today from the stress and build up of "the appointment" that he fell asleep in my lap as we chatted with the doctor. Brian ended up not having his first dose of chemo today as we are giving him another week to adjust to the new port and let the surgical wound heal. He will be starting steroids tomorrow as soon as I get the prescription filled.
  I am sure there is plenty more I could add or write but we are all just plain tired. This is emotionally draining and leaves us physically exhausted. More later.
