Home From Chemo



We got home around 6:30 pm. Vince started to feel nauseous so I dropped him off at home for Jim to watch him and Bernadette and I left to go get his anti-nausea medicine and while we were gone, he threw up! Jim was so great and cleaned it all up! I think he threw up because he drank 4 (2000 ml) of those Costco waters within 1 hr! He was already filled up from the 7 1/2 hrs. of chemo I.V.'s! I gave him the medicine and a piece of toast and he has been sleeping now for a few hrs! He needs that sleep so bad! He has not slept for more than 4 hrs. in a row in at least 6 mths! Please just pray that these next few days that he will be able to sleep through this treatment and in a few weeks from now that he would feel really good and have the energy to get his 5 day hospital chemo treatment without any gliches!
A special thank you to the Hick's family! Jim Hicks works at UCLA and brought us cookies and moral support! I appreciated that so much! Traci...Vince used those Prego Pops tonight! He really needed them and it was perfect timing!!! Love you all!
We are blessed!

Was just thinking about you and wanted to check in. Been praying for Vince to get some rest (you and Jim too). I hope that you are all able to relax this weekend and take it easy together as a family. And just as a side note...boy is Vince a handsome kid! Hugs, Debbie
