Truth is, I cannot remember putting together this post, but it was saved, so I added one to it and am posting it now. My son is on a break from chemo for an extra week because the last one had an elongated recovery period. He was not eating or drinking, he fell (and had head CT because he hit his head) and other issues. So instead we are doing 2 days of hydration several days apart and 3 weeks between this time. After is next Chemo (next week) they are working on scheduling that scan to see the effect the chemo treatments have had on the tumor. Please pray for a good result. And… as always thanks for all your prayers.

Oncologist visit showed that he was down 3 lbs. It did shock him, but he and I both knew he wasn’t eating much. Palliative care gave him a med that usually works on Chemo patients to make them hungry – I am sure hoping it works on him! Chemo #5 is Monday. After #6, the oncologist said they will do a scan and see the tumors status. It’s both hopeful and scary. Thanks for all your prayers, keep praying!

Chemo #4 in the books. This round he is very sleepy. We did have a medicine change and that also might be having that affect on him. Still hard to get him to eat enough (what I think is enough) and so we still have him drinking the Ensures for vitamins and calories. No weight loss this weigh in for chemo, and hoping to add another pound before the next one!

Getting into a routine. It could be the medicine change has worked to help the pain levels or the chemotherapy is starting to work. We are moving forward some. Today he took his walker “off-road” through the grass while getting to the car and he also came into the pharmacy with me. Thanks to the faithful prayer warriors – do keep praying.

Third Chemo completed, and my son is recovering. It’s seems always it hits him after the chemotherapy is finished for a few days (3-4) days where he is not feeling well, weak and has other symptoms. He has been fortunate not to have nausea, but he also doesn’t chose to eat much during this time. He has not lost any of his hair, and although some of the effects are scary, he has so far come back stronger after each round. He gained 2 lbs. at this last appointment which was cause for all the nurses to cheer and congratulate him.
Thank you for your prayers, please keep them coming. We were told that he will have 14 rounds of chemo instead of the original 4 we were expecting.
