Last Tuesday was Jim's 3rd (last) cycle of chemo infusion. He will be on the oral chemo for two more weeks.
As I said in the last post his feet had started to hurt... That's still the case.
Dr Khan said today it's a side effect of the oral meds. Although Alieve has given some relief we are hoping it doesn't last another few weeks with needing to be taking the pills that are causing it. It makes me hurt to watch him walk!
His blood counts all looked good today and has gained 1 pound since August 23.
Lord willing we will be flying to Tampa on October 9 for appointments on the 11&13 for a PET scan. If doctors are satisfied with the results they will schedule surgery.
We are so thankful that the bloodwork has stayed good throughout treatments and the side effects have been minimal!
Please continue to pray for good health and healing, preparation to be away from home for an unknown amount of time, safe travels, that the chemo is doing it's job.
Love and blessings to all!
