Day 41 - A Good Week

Well, Patrick has been out for a week, and all is going great! Patrick has been laying pretty low, recovering from his appendectomy and many, many sleepless nights. He's made two trips back to the hospital for testing, including a bone marrow biopsy, and he's been getting great results. He found out during his visit yesterday that his hair should start growing back soon, and the 6 remaining chemo treatments shouldn't make it fall out again, so he's pretty excited about that. Overall, a great week, and Patrick still has tomorrow night's benefit at the Dugout to look forward to!

Patrick will continue going to the hospital every Monday and Thursday for blood work during his next 6 months of treatment, as well as spend 5 days a month back in the hospital for more chemo. His next treatment won't start until November 5th, so there is still a lot of time for Patrick to enjoy and as good as he's feeling now, he's definitely going to make the most of it!
