Chemo Clarity

I've had several questions about, "What exactly is ahead of you?" Here is the breakdown:
May 11: Bloodwork to check counts at the beginning of the nadir after my last chemo treatment. Could be a potential platelet infusion. Body is ready for it. Mind says, "Not gonna be necessary."
May 18: Doctor visit
May 19: Bone Marrow Biopsy
May 21: CT Scan
May 22: PET Scan
May 26: Chemo - Day Camp
May 27,28: Chemo(cont.) - Overnight Camp
Approx. 3 weeks or so later - Pretesting at MCV followed by admission to MCV around 1 week after that.
Once I know the MCV details (exact dates, exact tests, blah, blah, blah), I will pass them on.

Bo had to skip chemo for the 2nd week in a row due to having a droopy right eye lid. He's being affected by the cumulative effects of chemo. It amazes me how long chemo drugs stay and do work in your body. He was excited that he got to skip chemo, but Rob and Amy, his parents, are concerned about it adding to the process and the possibility of further complications. Just when you think cancer has given you it's best punch, it does come back with others. I can deal with cancer picking a fight with me. When it picks on a kid....Keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Here's a funny Bo story. He and his mother were singing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" to each other this weekend. At the part where the words are "A-wee-mo-way," Bo started singing "A wiener dog." I hadn't heard that one before. Amy said it took hours to calm down from the hysterics of that one.
