Days become hours, about 17 hours

Well the good news is...two treatments in one day. WooHoo! The countdown now becomes hours instead of days. We talked to the doctor today and got a few new meds to take home, discussed our next appointments, what to expect, and what to be aware of. I arrived just in time. Toni sent me a text message just as I was at the red light, very close to the Hope Lodge. She said they were seeing the doctor. So I whipped in to the parking lot and walked straight to the radiation department. I entered the waiting room through the exit door, walked straight past the check-in desk to the patient rooms in the back. The nurse opened all the doors for me until we found the right one. So I caught the end of the doctor visit. You know if you act like you know where you are going and what you are doing, people rarely stop you. It paid off. (It's the Reba in me!) Dad seems to be a little more settled tonight and said some goodbyes at dinner. We have a big day tomorrow. Besides the double appointments, tomorrow is or was my mom's birthday, so I know that is on his mind also because he already mentioned it. It is definately on mine. We have an early appointment and then to the infusion center for some fluids before the second appointment six hours later. I hope the two treatments in one day goes well. I believe being at home knowing he doesn't have to come back for a while will make a difference. Love to all, Shannon
