I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for almost 15 years...sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. My husband was in remission with his Melanoma but new melanoma diagnosis 3/2021 so started back on Keytruda. 8/2020 began home Peritoneal Dialysis. 7/2022 began training for home hemodialysis…never a dull moment! Come join us in our daily routine...sometimes humdrum...sometimes sit on the edge of your seat!

Very Good News!
We've had a good day. Everything went like clockwork...again! We got to NIH before 10am...turned in travel/hotel vouchers, put our luggage in the car and then sat and read till it was time to pick up our voucher check. The check wasn't ready when Woody went to get it so we went upstairs to check in for the clinic. Woody got weighed and blood pressure taken (blood pressure good!). Then he went back to see if the check was ready. He got the check this time. He got back and they called us in early AND saw us early. The Fellow greeted us with very good news...the two tumors left had shrunk some more from four months ago!!! She talked to us for a bit and then left to get a couple of readings and a form for us to fill out to renew our ID badges. Good news we don't return for six months this time...reason we had to renew our badges. She brought those back to us so we could fill them out while we waited for the "doc-in-charge" to come in. We barely had the form filled out before the main doctor came in. She talked for a couple of minutes and then we headed down stairs to get our badges renewed. That took a half hour and then we were on our way--1:45pm eastern time. We drove to one of our favorite places to stop on our trip home...Fort Chiswell, VA...about the half-way point of the trip. It's good to be stopped! Now for some reading time and I will actually get to watch Project Runway on the night that it airs...I usually watch it a day or so later on an app on my iPad. So...the good Lord willin' I'll blog from home tomorrow.
