End round 2. Blood Drive Info

It is day 6 of round 2 of chemo. Yesterday was the last dose of chemo and today we are waiting these24 hrs. to make sure he is hydrated and bladder is good. This round of chemo can be hard on the bladder, so as a precaution they give him meds. to protect it and keep a close eye on his output.

 If you all remember at the beginning of this journey we learned what kind of tumor he had by looking at the markers (alphafete proteins) in his blood. These proteins are produced by this tumor.  This week we have an update on these markers. They have dropped to normal level (less then 9) this suggests the chemo is producing the desired results.
