Off the pole

We were finished our last 96 hour infusion of chemo late yesterday afternoon. The next two rounds the chemo will be administered differently which means he won't have to be hooked up so much. We got to go home right after he was unhooked and we got to stay home all night! That was an unexpected surprise - the first time a doctor has allowed us to do so (though I keep asking...). We had to be back by 8:30am this morning. Malcolm is feeling fine - appetite a bit low but otherwise no ill effects from this treatment - he keeps sailing through. Yesterday his platelets were 143, hemoglobin was 109 and ANC was about 1400. We are hoping to go home on a day pass this afternoon.
