#35 is in the can....
Yesterday, the NP at the cancer center wanted to delay chemo since Blake's been sick/running a fever for 10+ days. He pretty much told her NO; he doesn't want to delay anything or mess up his summer plans. So, today he went in for chemo #35 and another NP (again) suggested he skip this chemo & even delay it another 2 weeks in order to not mess up his schedule.... He decided to get the chemo anyway - he just doesn't want to get off track. His CEA was 2.6 (previous was 2.5) which is good - so staying on track and keeping the tumors on the run is probably a good thing. I hope he doesn't regret it. We have really been reminded recently how precious life is. While I certainly don't need to be the one to remind everyone to count their blessings, it doesn't hurt to suggest that we all take a minute to sit back and realize that life is good. You just never know what might happen. I know I am grateful that Blake continues to do so well. He's fought this battle with courage and determination and he continues to win. We are blessed. Love to you all, Kathy
