This morning, Isaac and I drove David over to DUMC for a pre-op appointment. Two hours of driving for 15 minutes of questions that they could have asked me over the phone is a little irritating, but that's the way it is.
Monday will begin long before dawn. The nurse said that she thinks we are supposed to be the first appointment of the day, so our arrival time will be 6am. I have to call later this afternoon to make sure about the time. The eye doctor will do the EUA (exam under anesthesia), and if all looks favorable, we will slither through the tunnels over to the Day Hospital for his next chemo treatment. All-in-all, they should have us occupied for about 10 hours. There is a possibility that they will make us stay overnight in the hospital since David is still a little guy, but I hope not. It is so much more comfortable at home.
I have to admit that I am a little nervous. We are hoping that the news from the EUA will tell us that the first round of chemo gave the tumor a hard hit, but there is always the chance that nothing happened at all, and then we will have to readjust. But I am doing my best to let tomorrow worry about itself. We will spend the weekend celebrating Rob's birthday and enjoying the cooler weather and the much needed rain.
Thanks for reading!
