There's No Place Like Home

The hospital took forever to release Dad today.  He had two IV iron treatments before he went home. Doctors are all still very pleased.  Next week:  PETScan and soon after that, insertion of the port-a-cath (a catheter inserted in the chest for easier delivery of drugs).  He has his down days.  Cards and calls lift him up.  Once again, we are all exhausted after a few days at the hospital. The crummy food, noise, uncomfortable beds/chairs, constant interruptions, and random screaming patients wear on the nerves after a while.  A good night's rest and maybe a glass of wine is in order!
