intense chemo

so we thought my dad was going to be starting chemo today but he didn't. they met with the doctor and he expained what exactly "intense" chemotherapy means.

tomorrow daddy meets with a surgeon.

thursday, said surgeon will open my daddy's chest and insert a catheter. a permanent catheter.

monday at 9 am daddy will go into the hospital for 4 days of continuous chemotherapy.

4 days straight. 24 hours a day.

then he will go home for 28 days.

every 28 days he will go back into the hospital for 4 days of continuous chemo for however long they decide to do this until they want to do something else.

my daddy hates hospitals. you could probably call it a phobia.

oh well, it isn't like he has too many other choices i guess.
