After the last cycle of chemo, Steve had his usual 3-4 days
of being very unwell but picked up really well. As I mentioned before he didn’t
need a blood transfusion and was feeling quite good. In fact Saturday he felt
great. He had a great day out with his mates Harold, Robert and Stan and
enjoyed visits from others.
His immune system held up really well and his mood and attitude
great. I always know how well he feels by the level of cheek he gives - and I’m
happy to tell you he was back in fine form!
Today he undertook scans to help the doctor determine the
effectiveness of the treatment thus far. We were hoping for some good news and
from the way he was feeling felt confident that something good was happening.
Well the doctor confirmed this. He said there was an excellent
response to the treatment and many of the nodes were reduced to nearly normal.
While there is still a long way to go – it is great to know this
leading into the next 3 cycles.
I’m sure this great result is not only from the treatment
but from the quality mindset Steve has kept throughout and from all of your
healing thoughts and prayers and ongoing contact.
Thanks also for those who have supplied good books, videos, games, jigsaws etc- they have all played an important part in this!
