Baby steps

Thursday the Accredo pharmacy called to get our credit card number. They put a hefty charge on it. Fortunately, the patient assistance grant came though; they will reimburse us for out of pocket expenses for medications, up to a certain point. We are so thankful for that.

Yesterday, someone else from Accredo called to check our address for delivery of the Revlimid. We had to tell them to hold the shipment until Monday because of the possible dose adjustment. Baby steps.

Dr. M, the oncologist,  called yesterday. He said the radiologist doesn't think Doug's arm is in danger of fracturing. However, Dr. M wants us to go see the radiation oncologist, to get her opinion. So next Tuesday we have an appointment with Dr. Hardenburgh in Edwards.

Monday we should find out about Doug's kidney function. That is my key concern right now. Meanwhile we are counting our joys.

Man is fond of counting his troubles but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.            Fyodor Dostoevski
