Chemo #2

Nick and I spent the day at the SCCA today for his second infusion. Lu was his nurse again - she's awesome!! We started off the day with his blood draw and were able to go get breakfast at The Portage Bay Cafe (yum!) while we waited for the results.

The Seattle Cancer Care Alliance is in the South Lake Union neighborhood and is just off the lake. Nick took a cool picture of the views from the infusion waiting room.

We actually went to breakfast near the new Amazon buildings that are going up just down the street from the SCCA. Will be an awesome spot when it's done!

When we got back to the hospital we met with Charlie, Nick's nurse practitioner. It looks like his blood work was pretty much perfect today -- even better than it was two weeks ago. It's almost totally back to normal post-surgery.

So chemo went as planned. Except for this foot that kept kicking me under the curtain (eww!).

Fortunately, those chemo neighbors were done after an hour or so and then we got a very quiet mom and daughter duo after! The rest of the day was very peaceful.

"Nutrition room" snacks

Nick's mom, Juli, got into Seattle this evening for a nice four-day weekend visit. Should be a good time -- we'll post lots of pics!

More soon,

Sally
