I know Steve really can't explain it to me and all I can do is be patient for him and help as much as I can. I know he's starting to feel better tonight but we both know we are only at the beginning and have a long bumpy road ahead. But we'll get through it and come out the other side ok. He's been ok up until late yesterday and his chemo was 3 days ago but i think I naively thought he was through the worst of the first round of chemo because so many days had passed with him being ok. At least now I will know for next time. So much to learn isn't there?
