Good day overall.
Blood draw at 10:15 AM, Meeting with Dr K at 11:15, then things slowed down a little. Some old hag told us we were too early to check in for infusion. We were there at 11:15 AM and the appointment was at 12:30 PM. Picky, picky, picky. We knew we'd have to sit awhile, we or I am used to that. We then walked to the other end of the Cancer Center and then into the Radiology Records Department and got my scans and xrays to take to Florida. That passed enough time to register for infusion.

At the Dr K visit he was very receptive to my getting radiation treatments at the Moffitt Cancer Center on the north east side of Tampa. It is allot like the UofM Hospital because it is a part of the University of South Florida School of Medicine. As a research hospital it is very much like UofM. Dr K even knows 2 radiologists at Moffitt, DR Stevens and Dr Shridhar. He is going to talk to Dr Stevens and set things up, scans and treatment. I have found an affiliate in the New Port Richey / Brooksville area, closer yet.

Dr K had a long talk with me about how some radiologists recommend a preventive radiation treatment to the brain. He advised against it for 3 reasons, it only has a 5% benefit, it could cause more neurological damage to someone with a neurological problem to start with and my age.

Of course we ate at the Broadway Cafe. Cheese Steak Hoagie for me and soup for Irene. Turns out the soup is not chicken but beef broth, scallions and whipped eggs drizzled into the hot broth. Simple enough and really yummy.

Two more short infusion days coming Thursday and Friday. We may try to leave Friday afternoon and drive for 8 hours or so. FLORIDA HERE WE COME!
