Today was my fourteenth immunotherapy treatment. I got on the road a bit late this morning but not so late that I was unable to make my scheduled appointment time. I generally pad my “leave the house” time a little bit because it helps when things don’t go exactly as planned. 🙂 Once I arrived, there was only a little wait time and then the blood work and infusion treatment processes went smoothly and quickly. I even managed to get home a little earlier than normal, and that included a quick stop for a late lunch.

So I mentioned in my last post that I told the nurses about the Ireland land title. Apparently that was entertaining enough that the story spread even to nurses that were not there for the initial story. I found this out today when one of them brought the medicine into my room to start the IV and said “Your medicine has arrived, lord.” while giggling. 😀 Another nurse did something similar when he removed the IV after the treatment was complete. I’m glad I was able to bring some entertainment to their day. 🙂

Extended Family

This past weekend we made a quick trip to North Eastern Tennessee to see extended family (on my wife’s side.) My wife and kids make the trip fairly often, but this was the first time in many years that I have made the trip with them. It was nice to see people who I had not seen for a while. And, my goodness, some of the “kids” I met a long time ago are now teens or older… makes me feel old, haha. 😀 Anyway, if any of you are reading this, thanks for hosting us and thanks for making me feel welcome in your homes.
