Well. folks - the taxol did not do the trick - the tumors have not shrunk - so we are doing an oral chemo now - I take an anti-nausea drug 1st, then 5 of the chemo - Xeloda - pills twice a day. So far no bad effects.
To prevent one of the side effects I have to put something called Bag Balm on my feet and hands to prevent sores. it is the texture of petroleum Jelly. I put on crew socks to keep from greasing the sheets and the floor. But my feet are nice and soft.
Gene's parents came to visit and it was great. We took Ryan and Leah to Ameristar Casino for all the crab legs you can eat on their buffet.
He's 19 now - how did that happen? I blinked.
