We visited Ryan Friday night along with our friends, Mike and Crystal Davies. We didn't get to the hospital until 8:30pm or so. We weren't worried about him being asleep as they haven't been starting evening chemo until 10:00pm or so. The chemo drip takes about an hour, so Ryan is up late. Sunday is a different chemo drug and then Monday he gets to 'rest' as in done with chemo! Ryan still looks good and feels relatively well and he's only thrown up a couple of times. They cut back on his hydration drip (potassium chloride) finally so Ryan won't have to keep going to the bathroom every half-hour! Kind of a pain for him as he has to haul the IV stand with him everywhere, even in the bathroom. Marcia and I may not make it up today as the house has been neglected for a while...we need to get caught up! We know others are going to visit today. If you do visit just remember to wash your hands just before entering (there is a sink just outside his door) and use the hand sanitizer.
The first photo is a picture of Ryan's bed extension. Good thing he was able to score one of those! It would be very uncomfortable otherwise!
Good looking legs and feet Ryan--good you were able to get a long bed!!--BYU lost bigtime in the pit today--I guess we need to be humble--Who would ever have thought a duffer nearly 80 would be a blogger--Fun though--We LOVE YOU
