I haven't posted too much lately- I don't want to jinx anything I guess. Bob continues to get infections- one Dr. says infections with a neo are normal, another wants to treat them & the oncologist wants them treated before she will administer chemo. So who knows who's right?
Anyhow, other than constant infections & now some concern about kidney function (again, a side effect of the chemo), Bob is doing OK for now. Of course I see the decline in stamina,& his appearance (he looks like a cancer patient).He is eating well & at the moment we have the constipation under control (with a lot of help from the prescriptions & my concoctions)
On the UP side, he continues to try & help around the building, in fact he did quite a bit of painting for me this week!!! He finds it hard to get down on the floor to do trim etc. but can handle a roller just fine.He must take frequent rests of course, but it was a big help.
Again, on the UP side, he had a CT scan a couple of weeks ago & they found that the lung tumors have shrunk considerably. This news was quite astonishing considering all the interruptions to the chemo schedule.
Thats about all the news for now- I continue to read all the posts & stick my 2 cents worth in now & again. For now, we will continue to accept the good days. I am thinking of you all & hoping you all get some more 'good days' soon.
Regards to all, Lorrie
