Back in for chemo
Today started as all admission days do,with a blood test.He also had an echo(heart scan) which isn't so much painful for him but it is quite uncomfortable.After probably our shortest clinic visit to date there was a question mark over bed availability.I honestly thought that was a thing of the past but it reared it's head again.Fortunately that question mark soon disappeared as we got a call from clinic to say to come back up ready for admission.We had a bit of a wait in clinic as they had to get his room ready.They hooked him up with chemo in clinic while we waited but it wasn't long before we were moved into camperdown ward.So far he's feeling fine with the only problem being his little Indian roommate who is quite vocal in a normal conversation and even more so when he wants something.Lets just say his requests have been more like demands,and often.If Kal continues to feel fine he can be discharged as soon as his chemo is finished which will be on Wednesday afternoon.I had a brief chat to his outreach nurse who has started to organise blood tests and physio at John Hunter so that we can come home after he is discharged.I still have to find out when he is due back and how long we get at home.
