A little pause in the plan

Today was planned to be our second Chemo session but results from yesterday's bloodwork has now put us on Chemo haitus. In order to have a Chemo session, all of Dad's numbers need to be steady and right now his kidney numbers are too low. So today he recieved lots and LOTS of fluids to boost those kideny numbers. We will spend the next week making sure Dad drinks waterfalls of liquids every day along with lots of eating. We will go back in a week and get bloodwork again to check the kidneys. If the kidney numbers are back up then we get back on the Chemo regimen. If the kidney numbers are still down then we will discuss the next options. We don't know what those options would be yet, but hey- doesn't matter because next week, all the kidney numbers will be back up. This is a marathon not a sprint and there will be changes in the plan as we go through. We have an amazing care team that will adapt as plans change and absolutely provide the best care every step of the way. We are feeling a little down today as we make adjustments in the plan, so drop some words of love and wisdom for Dad, and tell him to "DRINK YOUR WATER!"
