<p>[quote user="CShaveRR"]</p> <p><span style="font-family:georgia, palatino;">Johnny, I think the other way is just intravenous, or IV. Since they use it for chemotherapy (injecting chemicals that would be poisonous to cancer cells), I'm sure it could be considered poison IV.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia, palatino;">Linda still has her port, but the chemo is done in capsule form...believe it or not, she has to take <em>eight</em> capsules twice a day. She still has nausea from time to time (Thursday was bad for her), but overall she's feeling a lot better. The port has to be flushed from time to time, even though it's not in use.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia, palatino;">At their apartment is a dry-erase board that cntains a record of all of Linda's medications, and when they have to be taken. It's an effective system, and I don't think anything has been overlooked since we came up with it. Of course, when she had her port installed, somebody drew little stars in every available place on that board...so she'd have a starboard to go with her port. (I'm her father...you don't think <em>I'd</em> do such a thing, do you?)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia, palatino;">Hoping for a speedy recovery for you, Johnny! You'll have to let us know whether you feel like you can be on your feet for any length of time. This is not an easy show to navigate!</span></p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Best wishes for a speedy recovery for you Johnny.</p>
