    Hi Lisa . . . . I can relate somewhat. My husband was diagnosed in September – resection of 50% of his liver. He is currently undergoing chemo . . . . he is 1/2 done. We are devestated. There is no guarantee of anything. He tries to be more upbeat for me, but I know how he is feeling. We have a 14 year old and 5 year old . . . . I’m sure he pushes more for them. This site has at least showed me that we are not alone. Right now my biggest concern his my husband’s weight loss and lack of eating while going through chemo. He’s currently down 40 lbs. I pray a LOT. I think the time of the year really doesn’t help with all the emotions we are going through either. I’ll be praying for you.

    Chemo drugs are Gemzar and ambraxine.

    My husband is being treated locally in Appleton by Dr Goggins. Hair loss happened within the first month. In his second month he developed severe acne. His appetite is very poor. He also has a very hard time sleeping. They are jogging medicines to combat side effects. Most recently he had the worst case of hiccups. They lasted 48 hours. I’m wondering what will come next. I mostly look forward to April when this bout of chemo will end. I’m also trying to come up with things he c’s eat….a diet of fruit and pudding just isn’t allowing him to hold his weight.
