Well, we are nearing the end of this cycle. We took a week off from treatment this past wednesday and instead spent the week in the Smokey Mountains with Carrie's parents and brother. And it was such a great break from the usual routine of traveling back and forth to Texas. It was a much needed break and hopefully will rejuvenate us for a while.
Now it's back to the grind... Carrie will fly back to Texas this Tuesday and have her last treatment of this cycle on Wednesday, March 9. She will then have her CT scan done Thursday morning, March 10. I will then be flying out to Houston the following week on Tuesday, March 15. We will meet with Carrie's doctor for the results of the scan on Wednesday, March 16, and pending a good report, she will start the next cycle of 8 rounds that afternoon.
We have been doing this trial for 6 months now and it's really starting to take it's toll on us. We've been very fortunate that Carrie has been able to travel back and forth as much as she has. The only side effects she's had have been decreasing white blood counts. Thank you all for your continuous thoughts and prayers. Unless something happens, we will let everyone know the results next Wednesday, March 16.
