I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

Second Keytruda Infusion--Done!
I just realized that it is one month till Christmas. We had been so busy today that I hadn't thought about today's date till just now when I saw it on the "back page" of the blog. We left the house this morning around 11 and pulled back into our driveway around 8:30pm. We did add a little onto the trip as we had a glass globe break on one of our light fixtures and we went on a little side trip to McMinnville, TN to try to replace it. We did manage to find one that works. I came home and put it up first thing. We got to Vanderbilt ahead of schedule for a change and Woody got into the system quite quickly and all appointments went like clock-work. After labs, he was called in almost immediately to see Dr. Sosman and we didn't have to wait all that long till he came in. Dr. Sosman came in and asked his usual questions and poked around on Woody and then sent us on our way. I headed to make appointments (this time I got appointments for the next three infusions...so we are all set for appointments till into January) and Woody headed off to the infusion clinic...again ahead of schedule. He was called in there quickly which also meant that his medicine (top bag in the picture) got ordered from the pharmacy and didn't hold us up as much as sometimes. We left the infusion clinic a little before 6pm and got down to claim our car just under the wire before the valet service closed. (We did have a number to call if we had gotten down after it closed...so we wouldn't have been stranded!) We headed out and stopped at our traditional stop...Steak and Shake. Then it was on down the road for home. It is good to be back home.
