Last Keytruda Infusion? Time Will Tell!

We left around 6:45 this morning and got home about 4:10 this afternoon. No matter how smooth sailing things go, it is almost always a long day when we go to Vanderbilt. His labwork looked very good. He will go back in three weeks for a PET scan, labwork, and see either Dr. Sosman or his nurse practitioner. They will make a decision after reviewing the scan as to whether he is finished with Keytruda...at least for the time being. He does have a Keytruda infusion appointment that day "just in case." We made two stops on the way home...a late lunch at Steak and Shake and a stop at Melany and Wade's to drop off a forgotten present and a present that arrived after they were here and all the food storage dishes that they brought food in for our Christmas meal. Erin was home and we visited for a very short time. I checked out their Christmas decorations and talked a little with Erin and then we headed home. Everything went smoothly going to Vanderbilt today...no slow downs at all...amazing for going during rush hour time. We sat in a couple of waiting rooms for a while, but we stayed pretty much on schedule. We were always in a waiting room for his next appointment prior to the scheduled time for that appointment...now...he didn't always get called in for his appointment on time...but at least it wasn't our fault for the time of the appointments. We both worked puzzles during the waiting times and also read. I managed to finish a book while we were away...my first of this year...so at this time I have met the goal of one book a week at this point of the year! Woody has just headed out the door to walk to the prayer room at church. I believe that this is the first time that he has walked to the prayer room since his surgery six weeks ago.
