We made it home yesterday around noon. Malcolm fell asleep on the ride home and then slept in his bed for over three hours! He seems fine today and the line does not seem to bother him. The doctors have decided to delay his chemotherapy treatment by a week. This is to ensure he is fully healed before they start in order to minimize the chance of infection as his immunity drops. Until then, we will remain at home and are in charge of clearing his line with heparin every day. This Tuesday we go in for a check-up and as far as we know they intend too start chemo the following Tuesday, July 6.
