On Friday Kavan had his check up appointment with Dr.Chu. The good news was that Kavan's white blood cell count was back within normal range. This means he is well enough to proceed with chemotherapy. After last week's scare, I was extremely relieved to hear this news. Kavan was able to have Dr.Chu look at the lump under his right arm. Turns out it is an infected hair follicle. Nothing a little heat compress and some antibiotics can't look after.
After Kavan was finished work on Friday, the family headed to Canmore for some fresh air and relaxation. Unfortunately, I was unable to join them. I think I missed out on a great time. They enjoyed the sights of Banff and did a little exploring. Now, back to Edmonton for the start of a new week.

Tomorrow Kavan will finish his third cycle of chemotherapy. It's crazy to think that this all began in the middle of May. I hope Kavan is well with this cycle. I am concerned about how it will make him feel as the drugs tomorrow (Doxirubicin, Vinecristine and Cyclophosphamide) tend to be the harsher chemotherapy agents. But if anyone can get through this with a smile on their face, it's Kavan!
