And then there were five

Because of the holiday, the Mishawaka office was open for chemo on Friday and it was a busy place.  Jackie was my nurse and I have had her several times in South Bend.  She actually lives in Sturgis and we have had several talks about St. Joseph County.   I was done by about 11:00 because I had the clinical trial drug so it took a little longer.   That finishes out the month of November and now we are truly into count down mode.   I did sleep during the entire treatment not really aware of much around me.  But, when I got home I was awake, and up until after 10:00 p.m. and then up at 3:00 a.m. this morning.  

I don't feel any other side effects, but will wait to see what will come.  I only need to use three more days of sick leave as the last two treatments fall on days off from work.  I do need to use a few hours of annual leave before year's end or I will lose them as I will be topped out of leave.  This has never happened to me before.  That number won't increase until I hit my 15th year anniversary and that won't be until 2012 so I need to use up a few days sometime and then plan a vacation later in the year after I have a better sense of this new job.
