Hello.
On Monday July 18th, Jim is scheduled to have the port installed in his shoulder. This will aid in the injection of the chemo drugs and will allow the drugs immediate access to his blood stream. I plan on taking him to this appointment, not knowing how he's going to be afterwards... Groggy, upset, etc...
Starting on July 22nd, Jim will have his first chemo treatment. It's expected to take 3hrs at the oncologists, then he will have a shoulder bag that will inject the 5-FU over a 48hr period. He's set the appointments up for Fridays that way any reactions he may have will be done when he's not at work.
