I was finally discharged home on Monday evening (10/31/2011) How wonderful it feels to be back in my little nest. I spent most of the evening cleaning. I changed the linen on the bed, did some laundry, shampoo'd carpets, cleaned off the deck...wore myself out a little bit but it felt so good! I got a few stern looks from Rand and a comment here and there but he knows better than to try to stop me when I get something in my head. I had been dormant for 2 weeks and had alot of nervous energy to get rid of.
I went to Dr. Kilgore's office to get labs drawn yesterday. Hopeful that my WBC's and platelets have continued to improve. However, I hope they aren't too good because that means that I'm that much closer to my next treatment. Dr. Kilgore told me that he decided he was going to decrease the dosage of my chemo by 25% next time. I told him "I'm not going to argue with that!" I think it surprised all of us that it kicked my tail feathers the way it did.
But, in the meantime, I'm going to chill and continue to work on my recovery and get my self ready for ROUND 2...
