The start of Chemotherapy!!

Ok so lots has change since last time. We met with the new Dr. His name is Dr. Gouw, he is amazing, he is probably my favorite dr so far!! He is so nice!!!! Dr Gouw wanted to do a full body scan to see if his Cancer spread anywhere else, The results came back and it has NOT spread anywhere else, thank goodness!! And also he wanted him to get a biopsy done of his tumor in his lung to see if it is still Sarcoma. So he had the biopsy done at U of U, they sedated him and he had to lay on his back and they went through his back and into his chest to get the biopsy, he was only suppose to stay at U of U in recovery for 2 hours but during the biopsy his lung collapsed a little bit and so they needed to keep a close eye on him, so we ended up being there for 5 hours. The biopsy results came back and it is still Sarcoma, which sucks in a way because Sarcoma is more difficult to treat, but its good in a way because then there isnt a second type of cancer to deal with. Thomas had to get a port placed on Monday the 2nd. The port is used during chemo, and its also used to get blood. When he got his port placed they told him he would start chemo in one week!!! So we wanted to go on a little vacation before he started chemo, so my parents took me and thomas to VEGAS!! We were there from Aug 3rd-6Th... Thomas has never been to vegas before so he really enjoyed it!! So he started chemo on monday the 9th and today is friday the 13th and he goes home today. He has done really well through chemo, so far he hasnt had any side effects. He is doing great. He is really enjoying the free room service at Huntsman, he can call them anytime he wants and they will bring him whatever he wants! He has about 6 iv bags hooked up to him, 2 of them are the chemo, i have pictures below of the iv stand, but i took the pictures today and the chemo bags are already gone so i dont have pictures of those, i will get some next time. When they bring out the chemo they have to wear suits and gloves because they said its very harmful if it gets on your skin. He has so many fluids going in to him and so he has to go pee alot, which he isnt use to cause at home he never ever goes to the bathroom during the night, and now here at the hospital he goes 5 or 6 times a night. Thomas gets to come home today, and then he has to start treament again on Aug 30th. They said 7-10 days after his chemo treatments is when it gets scary, they said his bone marrow and blood cell count gets really low and so they have to have nurses come to our house and check on him, they said his immune system gets very low and he has to be really careful about going into public so he doesnt catch any germs. They said he can bleed alot easier, they dont even want him flossing his teeth because it could cause him to bleed. Check out the pictures below (also a few pictures from vegas!) I will post again next time!
