Setting some dates

Kathie and I are now scheduled for chemo class for next Wednesday (11/8) from 10am – noon. Fortunately, thanks to all the great info on the internet, and especially on the Hodgkins Forum, I think I already have a pretty good idea what to expect. They’ve scheduled me for 6 cycles (6 months) of chemo, which was a bit of a surprise – I was expecting 4 cycles since my cancer isn’t very advanced. I’ll ask the oncologist about this the next time I see him (I have 4 1/2 months until it makes a difference, after all). Chemo will start some time around 11/29. We’re also trying to plan our vacation to the Caribbean in about two weeks! We both definitely need to get a way for a while, since we haven’t had a vacation this year yet (we’d been saving up vacation time for our 2-week cruise of the Mediterranean, but we ended up missing it because of my surgery!).
