I just finished day 2 of drugs. Some would qualify as having recreational qualities, but there are strings attached here [literally] that we didn't have in college...Whoops, this is a family show.

So far very uneventful. Either goes like this, they give me 100 mg of Benadryl, I fall asleep and wake up three hours later. The people here have been wonderful all the nurses have personalities and appear very competent. Fortunately we haven't needed any thing much except when my central line stated to bleed and the regular nurses couldn't stop it within and hour. So at 4:00 am the regular floor nurse called the specialist nurse who works in the department that installs these things and she got it fixed up by 5 am. Amy had called to check in at about midnight, we told her about the bleeding and she made a suggestion which was the way the specialty nurse actually fixed it. We should have had Amy do it to begin with, thanks babe.

Jody's been doing all the writing up til now because I couldn't get my email account up to date, but I'm now on line with my lap top. Thanks for your touches and humor. I was glad not too much was at my expense. Keep that baby boy growing, he should be about 1 1/2 pounds now.

Our schedule for the next few days is more drugs tomorrow, just like yesterday and today, the 27th is rest and relax, the 28th I get a different drug called Rituxan, its somethting I've had before then on the 29th its showtime.

Remember Houston is two hours ahead on the clock, but parts of it are years behind ... like housing prices. More on that later.
