Tuesday AM Status

We are now in the hospital for a while...

The CT-scan showed the tumors have grown considerably in less than a week. The current round of chemo, which takes 4 weeks to complete, has limited any further treatment for 2 more weeks. Our current plan is to start a major round of chemo in 2 weeks that would be a combination of two or three drugs. The drugs create risk to her kidney, but it is a risk we need to take.

My worry is that the tumors continue to grow daily. Two weeks seems like an eternity on this cancer's time clock....

Please pray for Marge as she struggles with the pain, and for the Dr and his assistant as they work to manage the pain.

(Please limit any hospital visits right now if you would. Thanks)
