We’ve been straying put since Amanda hasn’t been feeling good, just going to the clinic and cancer center when we have to. I didn’t even crank the Yukon up Friday through Sunday and only walked outside the apartment complex to take Tank for a walk. When we were packing things up to move here, Amanda…

Like last time, Amanda did well through the infusion but tanked afterward in the evening on Monday. She started feeling bad once we got home, which only worsened through the night. The double Bumex before and after the treatment probably didn’t help either. It was good that I was home, too; she was moving around…

I know I haven’t posted in a while; I’m trying to wean y’all off of daily posts or even every other-day posts! With work I can see it is going to be hard posting. Like traveling posts, I don’t much like writing at home. I guess it’s easier to post when I have nothing going…

I know, I know, yes, we’re still alive; sorry for the delay in posting! Staying at home both ways at work didn’t leave me much time to write. I wrote most of this on the train or in a van at work. This will get you caught up through Saturday morning, though.  Amanda’s weight was…

Saturday, we grabbed a few more things to decorate the apartment. Amanda is finishing it up, and it is looking great. We needed to stop by and get a few groceries that she needed to be set for when I left for work. I was scheduled for an early train out on Sunday morning. I…

Wednesday, we had the IV Bumex scheduled first thing when the clinic opened. We were the first ones there ahead of the masses, all scheduled around the same time for labs. No one else was there, and we were taken back right away. Amanda asked to speak with Teia, our coordinator. She asked about subsequent…

Amanda was up earlier than me, getting ready for the clinic appointment. When I walked into the bathroom and saw her, I could easily tell she was retaining more fluid. Six pounds from the previous morning, she said. A total of 13 pounds up since discharge. I already had a reminder set to call the…

Of course, we left enough time to grab some StarBs on our way to the cancer center for the Daratumumab infusion. The closest ones were all in grocery stores. A Kroger’s was right in the way, and they surprisingly had the order-ahead option, so I made the order ran in and grabbed it. The cancer…

We’ve been busy since getting to the apartment. Amanda wanted to get out on her first day back. She had a few things she needed to return that she bought when we came up the time before last when the fluid levels were up. It’s hard for her to have clothes that fit when she…

Last night, I waited forever for my regular bus, but it was running behind. While waiting at the transit center, I sat beside a guy, and we chatted. He was waiting for his wife to get off work, catch a 40-minute bus ride to the transit center, and hopefully catch the last bus to where…
