Nathan had a pretty good day today. As of about 4:00 pm his nausea kicked in and he felt pretty bad for awhile. He finally threw up around 6:00 and then immediately wanted his food back and felt better. He is also looking like the toxins have hit him. I'd kind of forgotten the look - but I remember it now.
Julia and I came in this morning and we all stayed with Nathan all day. They had the playroom open for a little while and that was great. Unfortunately on the weekends the playroom is only open if they have volunteers so on this holiday weekend I am not sure he will be able to go back in there. Luke took Julia out to lunch for a while. She wanted to be with Nathan - but also had some cabin fever. Luke took her home after dinner.
He is done with 2 of the 3 chemos now. He just has topotecan the next two days. He had cytoxin the past two days and with that they have to pump so much fluid through him that he has to pee every hour or so. It will be nice not to be doing that tomorrow.
His cat scan will either be tomorrow or Monday - we are not sure which day yet.
That is about it for now. I am hoping for a night without too much nausea.
