We just got home from Chicago about an hour ago, and so far, so good. It was a little slow getting going - the pharmacy hadn't sent the chemo up so we waited a while for that, but then things ran like clockwork. Jon's bone marrow biopsy went a lot better today too - the nurse practicioner that did it has done almost 600 over them in the last year, so she was a lot better at it than the last person. Thank goodness.
I got to see the bone marrow itself - it was kind of cool actually. Kind of like very very very red spaghetti. We won't know the results for a few more days yet.
Jon is snoozing on the couch tonight, with the most consistent side effect he seems to get every week - severe chills, so I've got blankets piled on top of him and our dogs snuggling him.
Thank you everyone for all the well wishes and prayers.
