The Bad Weekend

As the title suggests, we have not had a very good weekend. Remington started the next round of Chemo therapy about 6 P.M. on Friday night. By 8 P.M. he had a reaction to one of the medications. This medication caused neuro-toxicity in his brain, which then caused Remington to have seizures. It took about 2 1/2 hours for the doctors to stop the seizure. He is back in ICU now. They have stopped the Chemo therapy, but we have to wait for his body to flush the chemicals out of his system. The doctors are going to meet this morning and come up with a new treatment plan for Remington. They are going to have to try a different family of drug for this second treatment phase as this set of drugs obviously is not going to cut it. We will let you know when Remington is moved back up to the 4th floor. Thank you
