Dread and Pain
November 12, 2010 - Jeff is starting to dread the treatments. This is the fifth day and the nurse was running out of fresh territory around his belly button. She injects in the same spot as Day 1. By that evening the injection site was painful, "like a brushburn" Jeff says. It is swollen and bright red. We clothes-pinned his shirt up off his belly because his T-shirt hurt. Fortunately, he has the weekend off and can recover some.
