Just received a call from George, an ONC Nurse at the VA,
who was tasked with making sure I knew what I was in for during the next two
days. I am to report to the Lab for
blood work at 7AM so that it will be ready for the Doc by 9:30. My appointment with my new Oncologist, Dr. Mannis
is at 9:30 and the infusion begins at 10:00.
It lasts all day… “into the late afternoon.” He has suggested I bring a lunch as I won’t
be allowed to leave the outpatient ward while I’m hooked up. A Big John’s sandwich sounds good to me. I will spend the night at the “Hop-Tel” and
repeat the procedure on Wednesday. I
will drive home [after a nice dinner] that evening.
