Chemo again

Day -7 (monday) chemo started again, it is a different drug to what he had last week. With this one he needs IV fluids for 2 hours before chemo can start. Then for six hours after it finishes he has fluids with a drug in it to help protect the bladder. The chemo only took one hour to run its course. Now he has to pee in a bottle  each time he needs to go so they can measure his output and check for red blood cells.
He's been given strong anti sick medication to help him feel ok, as last week wasnt that great with all the vomiting. It has worked so far.
Yesterday his nasal gastric tube went in. He was so good getting it put in, the trick was to drink through a straw and keep swallowing. Last night they had food trickling in while he slept, it looks a bit like a pale chocolate milkshake, that will happen everyday now. He is eating less and less each day, he just doesnt feel like food. He's lost 2 kilos since last monday.
We did have a bit of excitement though, on sunday night a nurse came in and got us to have a look out the nurses station window. The nurses station is right across the hall from our room, Logans not allowed out, but she said it would be fine. In the carpark down below there was a fire, 3 fire trucks were there putting it out, we couldnt quite see what was on fire but presume it was a car.
I saw a not so pretty sight yesterday, I was looking out the window over at Auckland hospital, and saw someone standing at their window looking out also, that was fine untill he turned around............ all I could see was his bare backside.
