Anthony starts MAINTENANCE chemo in about 2 weeks.
This is less than the expected amount of time it would take
to finish the first phase of chemotherapy. Adam and Mary
didn't think Anthony would start maintenance until December.
They have an amount of drugs given in the first phase and
Anthony has had all of those drugs. Most children can't
get the amount of chemo Anthony has had in such a
short amount of time.
Despite his many blood transfusions, Anthony hasn't missed
one chemo therapy session due to blood work which is
what usually happens to most children. They have to wait 3-5 days
for their blood work to reach levels where they can get
more chemo.
Anthony got one blood transfusion on Friday and still
met the blood work on Monday to have chemo on
Tuesday.
YEAH, the first phase is FINALLY over.
