WOW...What a day. Well, we made 3 of the appointments and one was rescheduled for tomorrow @ 2:00. Well, Life is a journey of learning and this was a learning experience kind of day for both of us. Wilroy started his day at One Day Surgery to get his picc line put in for his Chemo. This thing is inserted in his upper arm and then it weaves through his body until it reaches all the way into the tumor. This line is used to insert Chemo treatment. Next after bypassing his one appointment (too late) and on to Riverside Cancer Center and the radiology oncology dept. They asked 3 million questions and then the Dr came in and (she is wonderful) told us what to expect and what was going to happen M-F everyday for 6 weeks. His first appt (Tuesday) will be to put permanent marks on his chest for the radiation. Then he will start things going along after that for a few days and then finally the treatment itself. We then went to the heart Dr's office and he had an ultra sound on his heart to see how it was doing. She thought things were OK but the heart Dr will look at them and let Dr Mattern(onocologist) know for the appointment tomorrow at 2:00. WOW....That was enough for one day. We went to get something to eat and he's home in the chair resting. Enough for one day. Whew........
