The Team

The last two posts have been verbose but without pictures.  It occurred to me that I should start photographing his team--so here's a start.


The top picture is Dr. Nair and Dreama (the oncology nurse).  The bottom one is Dr. Nair's nurse, Lerin.

Need more--there are so many people on his side.

And it's all working.  Checking dates-- on August 5 (a few days after he started treatments) his hematocrit was 20.2 (should be at least 41), his hemoglobin count was 6.8 (should be at least 13.5) and his platelet count was 23 (should be at least 140).

After 6 weeks of treatment, the hematocrit is 31.4, the hemoglobin is 10.2, and the platelet count a whopping 287.  And, as you can see in the pictures above--he looks fine.  Has still had no side effects.

So - as far as having cancer goes, this is about as good as it gets.
