Another uneventful day for KD today. He fortunately figuring how to sleep around the crazy hospital schedule. And he's constantly being fed by his many admirers. So he spends most of his days in a food induced haze :-)
He's due for another round of chemo Saturday... so please please please call before you go visit him. It makes him a little sick or sleepy during and after. I know he would love to see anyone who stops by, but it drains his energy and he would like to be alert so he can appreciate your visit. Even if you call from the lobby to let him know you're coming up, it would give him a minute to shake himself awake ... 352-871-6263
Still no results from the DNA test. Hopefully Monday we'll find out about that and have a more clear idea of how long his treatment would take.
His emo haircut was bothering him so I tried fixing it today but his hair is so used to being long, that the shorter it gets cut, the more it stands out from his head. When he was a young teen and he had short hair, his grandpop used to call him a burr-head :-) I don't suggest calling him a burr-head now, but I'm beginning to understand the battle with hair like his and why it's more practical to let it grow long. Well, he really wants it buzzed into a mohawk right now but I can't bring myself to do that.
Anyhow, now we're just settled in to wait. He's really cheerful now and even wants his POD (a portable recording device he can hook up to his guitar) so that's always a good sign. If he wants to play and write music, he's in a good place. I'll keep everyone updated as the chemo starts to do its job.
