Clinic #4

Just a quick note to say that Charl's clinic went well today.  A few points on why :

a) Even though his white blood cell count was "in the boots" as the nurse practioner called it, she gave him the shot to boost his immune system (ie he didn't have to give it to himself, which is just not fun)

b) They gave him the thumbs up for taking Tylenol 3 for the pain associated with the injection (ie - Charl is in a happy place tonight, vs being in lots of pain)

c) We only had to wait 1hr 45 min to get in to be seen by the staff

d) Charl is still handling the chemo very well all things considered, and

e) The staff is great and the interaction with them is always pleasant.

We are hopeful again for a good day in Chemo #4 tomorrow - even though Charl doesn't look forward to it - and hopeful that these chemicals are doing an outstanding job of killing all remaining cancer cells in his body!!
