Dad starts 5 day Chemo

Dad got back from Mikeys wedding and took the chemo tonight. He did good on his trip to the wedding. Nausea and fatigue but nothing major. Decided to start chemo as soon as he got home. So far no side effects.

MRI review at UCSF

Meet with Dr. Clark to review scan images. She thinks they look good. She does not seem concerned about small area around tumor. She says we should do the 5/23 plan of chemo and should start immediately after Dad gets back from wedding.

Feeling good.

Dad MRI at St. Helena Hospital

Dads routine MRI is today. Slightly anxious but since he just had one a few weeks ago because of the seizure I'm not that worried.

Later in the day mom calls and says that Dr. Smith says the MRI looks ok. Something small in the tumor area is lighting up but who knows what it is. Abnormal area where seizure was looks normal now. Creates some anxiety amongst us. Will have to wait until next week when we meet with Dr. Clark.
