LAST Chemo

Praise God! This day has finally come. The Chan's household had an early start, but felt excited. Reg did not because he knew the chemo will make him sick again, but Anita tried her best to remind him this will be his very last one. Jed was dropped off to his friend's place to go to school with his friend's mum as Reg and Anita had to be in hospital at a much earlier time this time. Thankfully, all went smoothly and the traffic to hospital was much better than expected. They even found a perfect spot for parking that Reg didn't need to walk too far with his limping leg. They knew God has been answering everyone's prayer and made the whole day such a smooth process. The family rejoiced when they were given the green light for Reg to go ahead. Unfortunately, the nurse who had trouble finding the vein last time had given up with Reg and decided to swap with another nurse. Otherwise, it would be nice as she was teh first nurse to look after Reg. Thankfully, the other nurse was skillful enough to make it in her first attempt and spared Reg from the agony with more needle's prick. Due to the uneventful day, everything was completed so swiftly that they managed to reach home at record time. Anita could even take a break before picking up Jed. Reg was very tired after the chemo and took a good nap. He managed to eat a light dinner tonight and just pray that the side effect will be managable. It did feel strange after a week delay. It felt it has been a long time since the last chemo and resuming chemo felt like the very first time of having chemo. Yet they know it will be over soon and their hope is renewed in trusting God's peace and strength will be upon them in the next few days.
