Happy Birthday to my oldest daughter Misty, she turns 40 today.
Fevers on and off all night last night but eventually subsided. 4th Radiation treatment today then the Nurse said Dr. Anderson wanted to see me. The Nurse checked my vitals, I once again had a low grade fever. I told her I had been like that all weekend long. Dr. Anderson showed me pictures of what the tumors look like inside and how the radiation is aimed. Then he encouraged questions. This is a man who wants the patient to be in the loop of what is going on, the mark of great care and kindness. Denise's main question was what happens after the CT Scan if it shows the Pleural effusion shows a change. So I asked Dr. Anderson and he said since there wasn't enough to draw from that they are considering it to be just an infection. We will continue this path no matter what turns up.
I didn't tell him but I do not question what he does because I feel he has my benefit in mind. He has so far. Tomorrow they will draw blood in preparation for my second chemo on Wednesday.
