Mixed Emotions

I left the clinic feeling pretty happy. The dr put Rob on maintenance therapy and though they can't guarantee that he is really in remission and that can't say that it won't come back, it was encouraging. Especially when they took the picc line out. What an awesome moment! It really felt like, maybe he was getting better. I took the fistful of prescriptions and left with a huge smile on my face.

As I sit here tonight, the smile has faded. I picked up all the meds and I sat here and read all the papers. I guess I had my hopes up that Rob would be feeling better and be able to do more. It doesn't really look that way. His immune system is still going to be low, he is still going to be at risk for bruising and bleeding, he is still going to lose his hair, he might still battle nausea. I am really sad about this. I want my partner in crime back!
