Caine's treatment on Thursday went well. Dr. Hok was our doctor today and he stated that with treatment 3 this is when we can expect to see Caines counts start to drop. We have to watch close for signs of infection such as fever and tiredness and Caine just not being right. We have to go in Monday for a CBC to see how he is doing with Chemo on Thursday.
Good news is that they found the replacement drug, Erwinia. They are anticipating it to arrive Wednesday so we will most likely start those shots on Friday.
Watching for changes in Caine may be tough. The steriods are taking their toll on Caine. He is starting to puff out and have drastic mood swings. He was having a great day with friends over and at night was VERY upset about everything happening to him. It breaks my heart....new told him this is happening to everyone and even though you are the one going through th4 crappy parts we are all here for anything (even Brody was wanting to be in on the conversations and showed he cared). It will definitely be a long 12 lore days with steriods....cant wait til they are done....
