It was too good to be true. The last 9 chemos went well and we all slunk into our comfort zones expecting the last three to be the same. But the Gods had other plans. Ranjan next chemo, chemo 10, is due tomorrow and he has developed a slight fever. There seem to be no other signs of infection: cough, nose running, pain etc. The fever is hovering around 100. The discharge slip simply advises paracetamol in case of fever. Different websites however urge you to contact the doctor should the fever be above 100.4. I have sent a message to his oncologist and have been asked to call him up at 6pm. Beleive you me these two hours are going to seem like an eternity. I do hope it is nothing serious and we can be on schedule for our chemo tomorrow. I so want the chemo protocol and scans and removal of the port to be in 2013 so that we can usher the New Year chemo free! But this entails our remaining on schedule. Prayers needed.
