It's Sunday Post time! This is hosted by the awesome Caffeinated Book Reviewer and gives us all a chance to recap our week.
Will made his counts which means we are officially in phase 3! Phase 3 is 120 weeks of treatment so it's definitely a marathon but other then 2 3 week periods it is supposed to be way less intense. Basically if everything is going right you go in once a week for labs and chemo and a new prescription for some kind of oral chemo. Unfortunately, the medicine combo this week has been hard on him and he's been really groggy and more then a little cranky. Thankfully he just took his last dose of the one that I suspect is the problem so I'm hoping that those side effects will fade away and it'll be about a month before we have to worry about that one again.
I'm hoping to head to a used bookstore that is not far from us and am really excited. It's been a long time since I've been in person book shopping and used book shopping is my favorite thing because it's like a treasure hunt.
Will is doing so well and I'm glad that things are moving along to phase 3. It really is a long slog for all of you. I'm firmly indoors, except to feed the squirrels, as our region still has rising virus cases and I'm taking no chances.
ReplyDeleteYea for Bookshop outing! Yes, it sure is like a treasure hunt. I do hope Will is going to be better this upcoming week.
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping us updated!
Here's my The Sunday Post #15
Glad to hear Will could move on to phase 3... and you got to enjoy time book shopping! Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteAh the side effects are so trying. Hope there will be a lull, hard on Will and hard on you. I can almost smell the second hand bookshop! For the first time for years I didn't go to our annual huge local book fair, I just felt I have enough books and need to clear some! I did just buy the latest Jenny Colgan on audio and looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteContinued prayers and well wishes to Will! And hope those tougher courses go well for him. He sounds like a tough little guy and hopefully he won't have to deal with nasty side effects for a while. you guys stay strong!!!
ReplyDeleteI love used bookstores- hope you found a fabulous one!
I am sending positive energy your way! I am glad he is doing so well.
ReplyDeleteI am also glad you are enjoying some shows on Netflix. I have been eyeing American Murder: The Family Next Door.
Have a good week!
Yes! That is wonderful news!!! Keep hanging in there - and enjoy that bookstore! I hope you find a treasure. :)
ReplyDeleteAs always, I continue to keep the family in prayer. I know it's been so rough, but I do continue to believe that God is a Healer. Like you, I watched American Murder and was fascinated at some of the behind the scenes info that was shown. I remember so vividly when the news people interviewed him while he was on the porch, and felt vibes that he killed his own family. This guy is truly a narcissist, and it surprised me that he even admitted to doing it. So sad that he did what he did. Have you been watching the new(8th) season of British Baking Show? I never get tired of it. Yay to visiting the bookstore. What a great way to relax a little and to find some new books. Hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteI'm sending many virtual hugs to you and Will. My thoughts are with you all.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear that Will is progressing through the treatment - I think of you all often and include you in my prayers. And I hope you had the loveliest time at the book shop!
ReplyDeleteSending love to your family and I hope you enjoy your trip to the bookstore!
ReplyDeleteGlad to read Will has leveled up the positive way. I finished the Ravenel series which was enjoyable. I'm trying to sink more into Unmarriageable, which is an Indian version of Pride & Prejudice + I had started the last book in The Black Witch series. I was in the mood for some serious witches.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness Will will get some down time in between the one medicine that's giving him big problems. My heart aches for him. 💜💜💜
