Well, the first day of radiation, followed by chemo, is over.
Dad was fighting a bug of some kind (or some reaction to the coumadin) that pretty much had him feeling bad since he got out of the hospital last night. Not exactly the way he wanted to start out treatment, but he started on time and made it through.
The email from him this AM (and confirmation with Mom while Dad took a nap) indicated that he actually felt quite a bit better than yesterday. He's still really tired, but feels better than the past several days. Let's hope that lasts!
32 more radiation treatments to go, with daily chemo tablets the entire time. I need to get him a calendar to mark off the days completed.

Hey Butch,
Glad to hear your treatments have started and you're on your way to feeling better! Know it's not easy but I never remember you complaining and don't expect you will now either. Senator Kennedy was on the local news recently going back to his Cape Cod house after treatments at Mass. General Hospital and thought of you heading to the Lake in NP soon! Hope you can make it out there before the first frost! Will call tomorrow...Lots of love
