Chemo tomorrow

We are heading to the oncologist tomorrow morning for the chemo to start. As you can imagine, Troy is not thrilled, but the way I see it is that we are one day closer to this being over. We met Marcy & Hal on Saturday and they are just a very warm couple who is more than willing to be there for us through our ordeal. They understand every emotion we are going through and they plan on helping us get through this. Hal has even offered to go to Troy's treatments with him. Anyway, we are very grateful for our accidental meeting with them. Ryan hurt his leg today and I had to bring him to the doctor because he was limping around. He seems better now. Derek thought it would be a wonderful idea to give him a leg tackle! We went to the general surgeon's office yesterday for a follow-up to Troy's port surgery. Everything is fine there. He is healing pretty well from his PEG tube and I think he is even starting to get used to the fact that it is there. The nutritionist at the oncologist's office even gave us a case of food to try out. I told Troy that I was just going to mash up some food and syringe it in there! At least we can still laugh about all that is going on!! Donna & Ang bought Troy a PlayStation portable video game player so he will have some entertainment while he is sitting around receiving his chemo. The room he goes in to receive his treatments has a whole line up of leather lazy-boy chairs and every person receiving chemo for the day shares the room and shares their sad stories. Troy is planning on putting his ear plugs in so he can play Madden football and Medal of Honor. I don't think he will be trading stories! We'll let you know how he makes out. Talk to everyone later!!
