Yesterday, Mom had her third dose of pamidronate, a bone enhancer. But this time was a walk in the park. We discovered at her last pamidronate appointment that she could go to oncology and they could hook up to her port with a "to go" bag of pamidronate and she could head home as it was administered throughout the course of the day. It worked out perfectly! Oncology called the home nurse and told them approximately what time Mom's pamidronate would be done. Sure enough, they came to the house and disconnected her later in the afternoon! This process saved Mom and Dad hours of waiting around in the hospital Oncology department and for that, I don't know about you, but I want to do a little happy dance, :)
