Good/Bad

You know that they have always said that there are two sides to every story...two sides to every coin...two sides for every medication....
SO...
The good news is that there was no chemo today....
The good news is that the chemo is shrinking the tumors...

The bad news is because the chemo knocked his counts down way to low....and they could not chance giving him the chemo so we have to wait for the week...
The bad news is that the Dr. informed us that the chemo treatments are being rejected by the bone marrow..so, we are getting to the point where the chemo is not going to work anymore...HOWEVER...we will continue treatment until that time comes.

...in the meantime we "WATCH AND WAIT"...Which really is a combination of good and bad...the longer he goes without treatment the more symptoms arise....This week alone he lost 6 pounds....memory has been really bad...and he is back to sleeping a lot...So this week I have to use due diligence!

BUT...the good news is ....NO CHEMO TODAY!
                                        AND THE CHEMO IS SHRINKING THE TUMORS!
