hey everyone,
Finally home from hospital, Greg, my husband had 7.7 liters of fluid drained from his abdomen.. they also told me that his cancer has spread in his liver as well as a left lower pnuemonia in his lung. He is sooo weak.. I am hoping to see maybe some energy come back.. they talked to us about hospice.. this is all too much to take in.
hey all-star,
Thanks for your response, I am so happy to hear that the chemo is working for you with little side effects.. we have not completely ruled it out.. but of course greg is so hesitant. I just read him your blog. Tomorrow we are going to the hospital because the ascites is becoming painful for him. He is 9 months pregnant looking and having a hard time moving around and eating.. He has become soooo weak.. walking and getting of the toilet requires assitance..I am frightened seeing him in this state, I hope that this is only temporary, as he is laying in bed alll day. This cancer sucks!
Thanks for the responses everyone, I made an appt with oncologist today regarding the fluid..thanks lainy for the hospital advice, you all are a world of resources..
Hey Katielinn,
We started out at md anderson orlando, we had a consult at um sylvester this past week to see if he was a surgical candidate, they said no, and the only thing that md anderson offered was chemo.. I would love to explore the option of chemo immobilization.. please email dr info if possible..
How is your mom doing?? I know its so hard for my children to see their dad in this condition.. I appreciate your kind words and thank you so much for the reply.. talk to you soon!
