Ditto Today

Last month we did not feel any symptom could be worse than those rigor attacks and his infections. Well, we found another. 5 different nausea meds and none of them are working. Larry's vomiting and intense hiccups did not respond to yesterdays IV treatments. He went back to the Cancer Center today getting another double IV of fluids and steroid/nausea medication by IV.They again wanted him admitted to the hospital. This time Larry told them no. They said that if his symptoms continue through the weekend they will want to do an endoscopy.  He has not had anything to eat or drink of any substance for days. Eating just a few crackers and he loses it. To me, this has been far worse to deal with.

The clean up and having to work with the smell of bleach has activated all my health issues. Which in turn makes it harder for me to be patient with all that is going on. I am trying to give myself a break but find it hard to concentrate on anything else. I have learned today that it is OK for me to be teary.  I am having an emotional day-ok I said it!

Hopefully with Larry being done with the chemo today, his body will find its way. He did well last time with his blood levels. That will be known next week. He is so much weaker this time around because of all he has been through over the last 6 weeks. This is the first time in over a month that his line is disconnected from his port. That gives him a feeling of some freedom. He can also shower. That alone should make him feel somewhat better.

  2. Roberta said it, Melody--you need a good cry, and you deserve it. Let the tears cleanse your system and bring you some small relief. And let Larry's shower refresh him and make him feel more like himself.

  3. I am 29 years old and have been diagnosed with breast cancer, ease of treatment and a similar story, except for my first acceptance as a rejection of herbal medicine. I was not part of the Perseid movement and did not really build relationships with any of them, I just believed in their operation. I say this because it was during the use of Dr. Itua herbal medicine that I now attest that herbal medicine is real, the phytotherapy Dr. Itua heal my breast cancer which I suffered for 2 years. Dr. Itua herbal medicine is made of natural herbs, with no side effects, and easy to drink.

Thank you for commenting and letting me know you are keeping up to date on Larry's health. Please don't feel hurt if I don't comment back. My time has been very limited lately. Hugs, Melody
