TGIF!

FRIDAY---- and he is done with chemo!  I am so glad... The week wears me out... not really physically but emotionally--- I do all the worrying for him and make it as normal of a day as possible... and by Friday my shoulders are tight.... my head hurts and I have not slept well... but that is how I want it -- I don't want him thinking about it-- and I think that is why he is so resilient.... well, I can hope!

His clinic day was the same except he had me laughing a few times.. probably because I was shocked at what he says sometimes.... Today he was talking to our nurse... she asked him how he was feeling and then asked me if he had any diarrhea.... I said no... and he said... YES, I did.... then the nurse said maybe I should just ask him...MAYBE-- obviously I don't know-- Then they were talking football and chatting and he said yes to something and then asked her if she was a mind reader??? I said... what did he just say?? She laughed and commented how he used to not talk at all-- I think he has warmed up--- :)  He also joined another little boy and played a jumpin' monkey game.... the hour went fast and we were out of there... I was hoping to not come back until Tuesday or Wednesday but he has to be there on Monday to check his counts....
As we were walking out to check -out- Grier told me that Paula was "the best" at taking out his needle in his port-- so I said... Grier run back there and tell her while I make the next appointment... and he did.... I hope that made her day.... those nurses in the clinic have HUGE hearts to do what they do everyday... the office is crowded and as a good friend says... it is a BOOMING business~

Grace came home from a fun week at the beach and Grier was really excited....  I got to escape to the Toyota service place for the 2nd Friday in a row... and MacLean came and stayed with the threesome.... I am so excited I can leave him when he is not feeling 100%--- there are only a handful of people I would do that with...

He has a few side effects.. and the big D has hit a little tonight but it is manageable--- It doesn't stop him and I am not surprised.... nothing really does these days....

I have told a few friends that I should write down the dumb things people say to us daily--- and I should just so I can remember them.... Today, while we were in the elevator--- a man looked at Grier and said he had a nice HEAD--- really??? That was a first for us--  That is when I want him to come back with one of his comments .... but he just looks at them!

This has been a LONG week.... and I am looking forward to the weekend...
