We have gotten the green light from OT, PT, Speech Pathology, Nutrition, and Pharmacy.  We are a go to come home no later than Monday!!!  We are so excited.  The best part is there are little to no restrictions on what we can and cannot do.  So Day Beach trips?  Here we come!!!

We’re getting everything ready so we know what to do when we get home.  Lots and lots to learn.  The only obstacle is making sure his body can handle 12 hours of nutrition instead of 24.  They’re upping his feeding tube nutrition so that he’ll only “feed” at nighttime which is just great.
In regards to the next round of chemo, we still don’t have a lot of definites.  Dr. Thornton is going to look into seeing if we can do chemo at home!!  This is just awesome.  Otherwise, she’s going to look into working with another oncologist back in Lancaster to see if we can get the treatments at home, and only come down here for followups.  We’ll see-all options are still open, but we’re praying we can do the chemo at home!

Kevin is still not allowed to drive due to the narcotics, but he may be coming slowly off of them in the next coming days/weeks so that he’ll be able to.  The biggest thing is, to listen to his body, and do what he can without overdoing it.

We are looking forward to getting back to normalcy, to still catch a bit of summer fishing, and to go forward with our lives.  Everyone here is so amazing, and so wonderful.  It has truly been a blessing to be here under their excellent care.

So….here we come Lancaster!  WATCH OUT!
