Believe it or not, along with the good advice you have offered, I have laughed out loud while reading some of these posts Robert, you sound just like John! Do you have a wife, if so, can I talk to her ? Eileen,it is a total of 6 hrs. driving a day-Sheldon, the treatments are 5x a week, beginning the week after Memorial Day. John will do his 3rd treatment this Fri. 27th and 4 next week, then start 5 days a week. He drove himself this week[said he wanted me to be at Homeworks to oversee things} we'll see what happens next. Funny, one excuse he is using for driving himself is that he doesn't want me to get worn out. Course, he's waking me up before daylight getting ready to leave, I worry while he's on the road, so I might as well be in the car with him. Another excuse for not staying in Little Rock is not wanting to board our 3 dogs-read his "kids"- but, I outfoxed him there. I found a Residence Inn that allows pets- altho I don't know if they will take 3-[I need to go set the alarm for 5 a.m. tomorrow to be sure he's up] Since he isn't taking any chemo, my prayer is that this won't hit him as hard as it has some of you.Youall are such warm and compassionate people-and sometime REALLY FUNNY! Thank you, Amy
