The Final Three - this week!

Apologies for the lack of entries.  It's been a pretty busy week for me, and I didn't have a chance to update the blog.  Lame excuse, I know.  :)

I'm back in Omaha, and Dad has three treatments left!  Hard to believe that he's knocked down 30 so far, and has until Thursday and he's done!  After Thursday, we have a month-long wait for the next MRI scan, and then the next round of chemo.  Might be a trip to Mayo's as well in there for good measure.

Thursday night we'll be having a family dinner at a local steakhouse to celebrate the end of treatments.  Dr. Silverberg gave the okay for a half glass of wine as we toast to a full recovery.  Overall, Dad's done really well and hasn't really suffered many of the side effects we were expecting.  He still feels pretty darn well, but is seeing some tiredness and nausea kick in the last week.  Good thing it's almost over!
