We've just finished week 4 of what started out to be 7. So far radiation is still only 37 treatments but chemo has been increased to 11 weeks (so far that is). We saw the chemo Dr. this week and he told us that they were never going to deviate from the original treatment plan. He thought maybe their original tests may have been a false negative so they decided to add to the original plan to be on the safe side. Which to be honest still tells us nothing more than before but, the Dr. did say that they still have a strong hope that he can beat it!
Keith was not feeling too positive after seeing the Dr. He was very down. He is dreading having more chemo along with more nasty side effects. He's feeling more of the side effects with the current treatments and can't imagine what he'll go through with the new ones. He will get a couple of weeks break and start again only on a much stronger and aggressive treatment. This new treatment will hopefully prevent it from coming back!! They want him to have 2-4 of the new treatments. The good part is no radiation!
I will say that I am so happy it's FRIDAY!!!! A 3 day vacation for us all! No Dr.'s, and no school! I think we all need to enjoy the long weekend! Next week will be long for us!
Thank you again for reading my blog! Have a great holiday weekend!! God Bless!
