2nd Round of Chemo: Night 1

Well it is 2:27am and we have been up for about an hour.  We thought this dose would be as easy as the first, but dad's doctor didn't give him Zophran this time and he has been sick and throwing up.  Neither one of us like to throw up, but who does, so I am sitting up with him.  I went to go to bed about half an hour ago and he started getting sick and wanted me.  Dad takes a nightly phenergan with his routine meds, but I gave him another one when we first got up...but that didn't stay down so I am hoping the 2nd one will.  So far, so good. 
I feel so bad for him...I want to take this sickness away...I will definitely call the doctors in the morning and get them to call in a prescription for Zophran. 

On the bright side...if you can actually say there is a bright side to cancer...dad did get his new walker this week...a big boy walker...woo hoo...thank you so much mom!!!  Plus he got his new wheel chair...he said he was practicing his wheelies the other day...I sure hope he was joking.  I'll have to post pictures soon...

Well I'm going to try going to bed again...5:30 comes early but I hate to leave him up sick.  CANCER SUCKS!!
