We're glad to report that this week's chemo reaction has been much less severe than the one three weeks ago. The oncologist supplied stronger anti-nausea medication before the chemo infusion, as well as additional anti-nausea and "post-chemo" pills. Those things, perhaps along with acclimatization (?), seem to have helped a lot. Steve is still somewhat tired, but altogether this round has been a much less daunting experience than the last one.
We have been fussing a bit with the feeding tube (leakage issues)--most recently, got the tube itself replaced a couple of days ago. Could tell a story about that, but on the whole it's been a nuisance more than a crisis.
We continue to enjoy visits and other contacts from friends and family, and look forward to more of the same as the spring weather makes its early entry. Thanks again to all of you for your ongoing support!
--Carol and Steve
