Follow Up to Third Chemo

Touch wood...Adrienne has not gotten any hives from her chemo earlier this week. The last two times, she had them by now. Earlier in the week, she felt "achy" and "icky" (her words) but is feeling back to normal now. The next chemo is scheduled for March 21 with a PET/CT scan on March 30. We have a consultation with the BMT doctor on March 21 before her chemo to discuss donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs).

There is no new college news as yet. We probably won't know anything else until March 31, when many schools post acceptances on the web. Isn't the Internet great? No more need to wait for (hopefully big) envelopes in the mail from colleges.

Daniel had his first track meet yesterday. Adrienne and I went to cheer for him and the other participants. Having never been to a track meet before, we were thoroughly confused about what was going on where. The hurdles made us nervous to watch and one person was hurt pretty badly. Daniel didn't place in any of his events (shotput and discus) but this was his first meet ever and he's sure to improve. He is really enjoying track so far and the coach is very nice and supportive.
