Again our friend really helped out with looking after our dear child.
Before you have any subsequent chemotherapies you must first have your blood test the day before so that your immunity can be tested. We had a phone call last night informing us that we must get another blood test on the day just before treatment so that we can see if the therapy can go ahead. They do this to see if there has been a slight change, just in case.
To do this, we had to go to Slough for the blood test (leaving Maidenhead around 07:30), along the crowded M4, through Slough, and then to Wexham Park.
For the first time ever, we were in and out of pathology within a quarter of an hour. Wow.
So, leaving early, our friend really helped us by taking our dear child earlier and battling with the school run.
Amazingly I managed to get the car parked on the first circuit of the car park, again! Absolutely amazing.
We ate well today, breakfast baguettes and fish and chips once we got home. Due to the treatment my dear wife has lost some weight so we need her to have some additional calories as she may suffer CINV.
