Flashback Friday

Chemo Day 1

Steve's first chemo infusion was Thursday, February 20, 2020. When we arrived at the chemo infusion room, we were greeted by Steve's super cute nurse, who was even more pregnant than she was cute.  Literally late in her 3rd trimester she was called in to fill in for a nurse who couldn't be there that day. Poor girl could hardly move herself and her baby around let alone successfully accomplish some of her more taxing nurse duties.  She tried 3 times to insert Steve's IV before handing him over to the "chemo floor IV expert". That sweet girl had no luck either. So after 5 tries, they sent him down to the radiation room where the girl in the above photo did it on her first try.

Below is the photo I took of Stephen on our way home from Chemo Day One.
