They brought this cold into our house :-(
I have been sick the past week and trying to avoid Nana and Pop, and I have been doing a good job too. Basically, I've just been sleeping after I get home from work - that's how lousy I feel.
But alas, its all for naught! Nana is now sick with an unending runny nose. I'm hoping with enough OJ and meds that we can knock it right out of her.
In Pop news, Vic doesn't have to see the doctor again for another month. After the month, he'll get tested, then we'll wait some more for the results, then we'll have some answers and maybe an interesting update.
Well that's all for now. I'll be back on Monday with another update (I'm going to UConn and Cape Cod this weekend for some irresponsible fun).

I know, I know
It's been a very long time since I've posted and part of the reason is that I've been away on vacation and the other part is that nothing is happening here.
Right now we're waiting for Pop's doctor's appointment on Wednesday so the doctor can set up another appointment for him to get tested to see if the chemo did its job.
So we're doing a lot of waiting.
More to come soon.

Good news everyone!
Wednesday was Pop's LAST TREATMENT OF CHEMO!
So this means that next week he's going back to get a CAT and PET scans, which will assess how effective the treatments were. So until then we're all holding our breath and hoping they worked (the next step would be radiation if it didn't).
In other exciting news, I will be going on a road trip to Kentucky today and coming back late Sunday night, so I'll be offline for that time.
Also Friday is Caroline's birthday and she and the family are coming over for dinner with Nana and Pop tomorrow night. Happy Birthday!!
That's all for now. :-)

Monday, Monday
And that pretty much means the same old, same old. Nana and I went shopping yesterday and got some nice towels and clothes respectively. Pop stayed home and talked with one of his old buddies. On Saturday, Nana and I took a trip to the miniature store, and when we left the house Pop was in his bed with the covers on. This of course is ridiculous considering how FREAKIN' hot and muggy the weather has been lately.
Besides his ludicrous cold-ness, Pop is doing okay. He has another doctors appointment tomorrow and is scheduled for another dose of chemo. Supposedly, he and Nana were told that he would receive six treatments of chemo. Tomorrow is that sixth treatment. So let's cross our fingers, kiss that rabbit's foot, get on our knees, and do whatever else it takes for a spot of good luck.
