Round 2 of 3 for February

Today is Joe's 2nd round of Chemo for this month with the last one next week on the 16th.  He has had a pretty good week thus far, at least a busy one anyway.  On Tuesday night rehearsal for TGMC started again for the spring so once again he will have 3 nights in a row with an obligation.  What's the saying about "idle hands"?....well it shouldn't have anything to do with Joe.  Monday he has Durham Childrens Chorus from 4:30-6; Tuesday PGUMC staff meeting, piano lessons and TGMC chorus; Wednesday piano lessons and choir practice; Thursday chemo, piano lessons & Bible study; Friday just piano and then he normally has a free Saturday before being at church at 7:30a.m until after 12pm.  And this is his retirement schedule.

Joe got to his 7:30am appointment at Duke a little early and was checked in at the chemo infusion center at 8:28am for his 8:30am appointment.  There was time in between for him to go get breakfast in the food court.  He was out of chemo by 10a.m. which might be a record tying time.  I'll have to go back and see if he's made it out before by a minute or two.  Now he just get's to look forward to a couple of somewhat sleepless nights before getting back on track.  He has been battling a head cold for the last 10 days or so, but that seems to be better too.  All things considering, not a bad week (last nights 85-84 win over UNC didn't hurt either).

I hope everyone has a great weekend and thank you for your continued prayers and support.
