Round 2, day 1....a very long day.
The day started with blood work at 7:45 am
Red blood count: 2.81 (normal 4.32-5.72)
White blood count: 3.4 (normal 3.5-10.5)
Hemoglobin: 10.1 (normal 13.5-17.5)
Hemocrit: 30.1 (normal 38.8-50.0)
Platelets: 97 (normal 150-450)
Absolute lymphocytes 1.0 (normal 0.9-2.9)
Overall, not too bad.
Doctor at 9:30 am, then chemo at 10:30 am.
This time around Fred received Rituxan (which took 4 hours to run), than Fludarabine and finally Cytoxin. Got out of chemo at 5:00 pm. As I said a very long day. Fred slept through most of it and woke up around 4:15 pm. Then he was very "chatty".
He is resting now and we start again tomorrow at 8:30 am.
Thanks for all the prayers, it means so much to us.

No port, doctor doesn't want to risk infection.
