Jen is feeling better today...waiting for an update on if she's coming home.
As to me....heh...the news is mixed. The bad news is I have mulitple nodules in my lungs, the 1 on my adrenal gland has sprung up again, and 1 on the rear bone of my hip on the left side. The doctor isn't worried about any of them except for the hip if it starts hurting or something. It's not weight bearing and luckily all of these new findings are small. The good news is she just got wind of an antibody trial that they're trying to get Melanoma patients in on and it may be a few weeks out until I know if I have a slot. I'm planning on having surgery in early November for my throat followed by starting the trial if I can get a seat. Otherwise I'm taking zometa which is to strengthen your bones and I'm at a holding point with this other stuff on the burner. I may get another dose after surgery depending on when the trail starts.
Then there's work...I can't work with a feeding tube so that's a done deal and beyind that I don't know...at the minumum I need to take some time of next month related to surgery. We'll see where this goes but for now I need to bulk up and gain weight for surgery and get Jen better and home.
We'll take 1 day at a time..
