Treatment 3, Day Two

Cycle 2-1, Day Two

This has been a rough one for Kevin.

He feels rotten. Achy, tired. There's a growing nasty taste in his mouth and the tingling is increasing in his hands. He was glad to kick back and rest at the end of the work day.

He's adapted his nights well to managing the chemotherapy pump, but the work days are occasionally tricky. He'll pace during a call with the pump sitting on his desk. If he moves just beyond the reach of the IV tubing, he's jerked back like a dog on a chain.

I know he's getting frustrated with the constraints of treatment and the growing side effects.
