Thursday, 9/15 - Last day of chemo

Good morning all...
I was hoping Steve would post how Stefan was doing yesterday, since Steve went to visit him and I didn't. Maybe he'll post later...

I met up with Daniella yesterday, so she could come home and get what she needed. I drove her back to the El, as I didn't have enough time to drive her to the hospital and get home from downtown before the girls came home from school.

I'll be going down to NMH in just a bit here, so when I get back, I'll post how Stefan is doing today.

Weather turned miserable yesterday - raining since later afternoon. Miserable only because we've been so used to nice, sunny - if hot - weather. But fall is just around the corner, literally. And with the start of fall comes the weather we so love in Chicago - rainy, windy, gray...blah.

Stefan was doing well yesterday. His energy level is still low, but his oncologist asked him to start walking down to the nurses' station daily, as well as to get up and sit in the chair rather than just staying in bed. He finished his chemo yesterday evening, so we'll see how today goes. We've all got to wait a week before they do the biopsy which will bring the results of the chemo's effectiveness. So, we wait.

In the meanwhile, ask for the return of sunny days - at least on Saturday mornings, when Ela has her soccer games!!!

More to come later tonight.
