Les, Mom, Aunt Judy and I met with Dr. T this afternoon. Les was really uncomfortable in his wheelchair, but did pretty well conversing with him. We are again cutting back on some of the meds, with the hope that his hands become less shaky and words are more easily retrieved. Dr. T also advised giving the chemo a break, allowing Les to gain some of his strength back. We will re-evaluate in 4 weeks to see if chemo is a good plan at that point. Mom cancelled the appointment with Dr. Sexina today, since we already had our questions answered and Les was having trouble getting into a good position in the chair.
For the last several evenings, Les has been more conversational. He ate/drank very well tonight...we're not sure why the sudden change, but we're very happy about it. Sounds like gowning up will continue for the next several weeks. Visitors are always welcome, but it may be a good idea to call mom first at 402-480-2981. Thanks for keeping Les in your thoughts and prayers. We appreciate it!

Glad to hear Les is feeling like doing more. I hope the break in chemo will bring more strength and better days. We wish you all well, and pray for improvement.
ReplyDeleteHi, It's always good to hear good news. I'm glad he like the ice cream, just a little surprised to hear it was vanilla, not chocolate. I pray for Les' strenght to return. I pray for you and your whole family. Nik is doing a wonderful job of keeping everybody informed. Thanks. Joyce
