Day 318: Today was Carson’s last day of chemotherapy for 2025!!! 🙌
However, his hemoglobin was on the borderline, so we do have to return next week for blood counts and a possible transfusion.
This was the last treatment for this cycle of chemotherapy. He is finished with frontline. His next appointment will be day one of maintenance. Maintenance will be a daily oral chemo, but it’s not an intense dose. Carson will be able to start living life almost “normal”, even though he is not even halfway finished with chemotherapy. His expected end of treatment date isn’t until March 2027. We still have a long road ahead of us, but the hardest part is over as long as treatment continues to work. Praying that the bad “R” word doesn’t come up, ever for him.
Today he was promised a sponge bob meal for being so good. I went to Burger King and realized I left my wallet at home and I couldn’t order the meal on the app. A nice man from Hardin County (where we are from) offered to buy him the meal and gave him money for a toy. So sweet of him to make sure my boy still received his meal! Nice to have good people in this world.
