The traveler is back home and I'm happy for the polar route home that avoided Hurricane Sandy. It seems that everyone else in Serbia got a cold over the last ten days except for John (knock wood).
His midnight arrival left plenty of time for a decent night's sleep and this morning's chemo appointment. And his usual naps in the infusion room recliner might even help alleviate the inevitable jetlag.
Today he was able to have a pastrami and cheese sandwich for his late lunch and still manage to dine on the dark meat from a rotisserie chicken with a bit of broccoli. It's so odd that he can manage a dill pickle but not a drink of water. We'll see what tomorrow brings.
This unanticipated trip meant that this round is four weeks after the last one (rather than the usual three weeks). The good news is that maybe the longer wait will help him deal with the chemo side effects. The bad news is that the next chemo will be right before Turkey Day. We'll be having our holiday dinner the weekend before--anyone who wants to join our celebration is invited!
