Steve is doing well this week. He's had no obvious reactions to the chemotherapy. We'll have a better idea of how his blood is reacting on Monday, when he has blood drawn and tested.
On Wednesday, he stepped down from 2 mg of Decadron to 1.5 mg daily. He says that since then he's felt a little bit wobbly and has noticed some decreased function on his left side, but he's willing (and Dr. M is willing) to take those symptoms in an effort to get off the steroid altogether.
We've had an especially busy week around here -- swim lessons, math games extravaganza for Cooper, doctor's appointments, getting Steve to and from work, extra deadline work for me from home. As always, we're able to pull it off with a huge cast -- this week including Dawn, Carolyn, Betty, Cathy, Leti, Justin and Madeline. Thank you!
Steve should have plenty of resting opportunities this weekend. I'm taking Cooper and/or Katie to four birthday parties in two days, so the house will be quiet for big blocks of time.
