3rd round woes

Well, Margie is busy so I am writing for her. This is Pat, Joe's mom. Joe has one more chemo drug to go in this 3rd but it is the worst. He has been very tired and sleeps a lot. They are giving him so many meds that cause drowsiness, that is not surprising. He says he is kind of lonely so don't hesitate to go see him if you have the time. They put him back on IVIG, the one for his neurological problems so we will see how that works. His eyes seem to be doing a little better and he is walking more so that is the good news. The bad news is they won't let him go home and he really wants to. He tolerated the lumbar puncture last Friday pretty well but now has bad headaches. Today it was migraine and they had to give him a pill for that and it helped. He still isn't neutropenic as of today so get your visit in before it's too late.
