    Our oncologist reviewed the scans with us this morning and we’re sad to say that his liver tumor and some of the tumors in the lungs have grown. The gemzar and cisplatin are not working. Oncologist is changing the chemo recipe to Oxaliplatin and then going home with 5-Fluorouracil in a chemo bag for two days. We’ll come back in to have it unhooked after 47 hours. If this chemo recipe doesn’t work after 6 treatments then we go to clinical trial. It’s hard to believe that his tumors grew so much even while he was on chemo. Hoping this next chemo treatments will work. Has anyone out there had any experience with a take home chemo bag?
