I'm glad it's very treatable. Just knowing that helps I'm sure. I was wondering about his tolerance of meds because chemo can make you sick but they do have nausea meds too. If he can take those that will be a boon for him and his outlook and moods.

If you look up introvert in the dictionary, there should be a picture of my father. He does have a buddy from work and is certainly on good terms with his other coworkers, but I have no idea how much he talks to them about this stuff. Though, since he's going to be in and out so much, he should tell them, and hopefully accept their good wishes, no matter that he hates fusses (I don't necessarily call that a fuss, but I know him, too). No KoC, nothing like that, and unfortunately the siblings he's closest to are a lot like him. *sigh* Well, so am I, and I got over some of it. If any of this ordeal alters him that way, then at least one good thing will come out of this.

I've heard about some of the side effects and he's likely to have a rough time of it. Crossed fingers that he tells them when it's too much so that they can give him whatever to ease it. And Grandma aside, if they need me, I'm there, but will definitely wait to be called upon!

Deal!

I have two boys and for Christmas they got an electric guitar and drums! They need a tutor and I'm sure they'll love to hang on your every word.

And a singing alarm sounds pretty cool too!

As for the meds maybe you can have your mom BE SURE to emphasize for him to ask for the nausea meds. As for Grandma/Parents possible conflict in schedule, that might be something to try to figure on, maybe someone you could call if you need some extra help. Then let your mom know.

Well, I don't know him, but if Mom sees him, that's a possibility, and I will definitely pass on the stuff about the nausea meds; I know she's attended a lot of the dr appts so far, so I'm sure she might be able to bring it up. If she does it right, the dr can even explain the benefits before Dad has a chance to get stubborn. If he chooses to be right now, that is.
The scheduling thing--if it's only a day or two, there'll be no problems. And Grandma has good neighbors.

Well, at least I can plead my case that I was trying! Yeah, that's it. I wasn't joining in; I was just trying to get them to change their course!

And you did try--really you did! We just took the bit between our teeth and ran.

Well of course we took it in our teeth, I don't know where else it would go and I'm not sure I want to find out - I saw that pony play episode too!

Rob, aren't you a ? The bit doesn't go betweeen the teeth! It goes in the soft spot behind the teeth. And it's "took the bit between the teeth and ran.

Reminds me of a friend telling me about the neighbor dog with the wireless electric fence. He'd start yelping about 3' early and help down the road, but he'd be free!

You might not want to know about the bit, but I'll bet you're interested in the whip! I'm right, huh?

i_heart_bones wrote:Definitely!
Will plan further throughout the year!

Yeah, okay buzzkill McGee - so that part of my schtick fell flat. Yep, the bit goes between the teeth unless they're broke to a hackmore, which I actuall prefer - the difference between a hackmore and a standard bit on a horse is like power steering and standard rack and pinion.

LMAO! I know, those things aren't really that effective on dogs that want to get free but they work wonders on kids and drunk guys. I keep telling my neighbor, who has three kids and a fourth on the way, to get one so his wife doesn't run herelf ragged chasing after the kids. Makes sense to me. Then again I liked the idea of the Victorian work house...

You might not want to know about the bit, but I'll bet you're interested in the whip! I'm right, huh?

Oh the whip, riding crops, all sorts of restraints...yep, and don't misbehave either...

Buzzkill! I haven't heard that word in ages and I was using it to describe myself earlier this evening! I just can't help it. That's the kind of girl I am. Some fight our nature and the rest of us just learn to deal with the fallout.



I knew I was right!

Haha no, the roads were fine and I am in Boston. The hotel is awesome, but they charge for wifi here so I'm just winging it with my phone...lol.

Talk to you later!

Yay for good roads and an awesome hotel. Boo on charging for wifi...even Hotel 8 gives it away for free these days.

See ya!
