APRIL 20

In Gary's room, there is a poster that has spaces for the patient to write about himself. Gary had not done this, but when we arrived back in his room last night, his nurse had written some for him. This is the same nurse who had commented about our relationship. A few days ago, I had just arrived to his room when she asked if she could do anything for Gary. He said, "I'm fine ... now that my eye candy is here". That is whey she wrote what she here. *smile*
Gary started the day being sick and it has continued. He only had one hour of chemo and that is the last of it. His white blood count has already dropped from 8200 when he came in Wednesday, to 2800 this morning. He has lost another 2 kilos, so that is 5 kilos (11 lbs.) since Wednesday! Tomorrow is the BIG day! He will get his cells put back and we will start the count down to "wellness". Thank you for your prayers!
