Moving Along

Wednesday night Paul had his 18th treatment. His appointments, for the past few weeks, have been AM appointments. On Wednesday, however, he was "bumped" to an 8:30 PM slot for some reason. We think it may have had to do with several anesthesia cases needing to be done in his treatment room in the morning. The treatment room is called a gantry. Paul is assigned to gantry #1 (there are four rooms), which happens to be the gantry in which children are treated. They use anesthesia when treating a young child in order to put the child to sleep for the duration of the treatment. It would be way too scary for the child if s/he was awake during the treatment. The anesthesiologists only work in the morning so whenever a child needs to be treated, the entire schedule gets moved around.

Not much else is new. Yesterday we visited the March Air Force museum which is adjacent to March Air Force Base in Riverside CA. Paul enjoyed it very much. Sorry, we forgot our camera so there are no pictures to post but we may go back. Next time we'll remember the camera.
