42 Never Looked So Good

Good Afternoon!

Chad finished his first cycle of his 3rd round of chemo this week. He will have 2 more infusions before he has another set of scans done. He was very tired but his nausea seemed to be under better control during this treatment. We think that we are seeing a slight improvement in nausea and eating since he started the new medication but it's still a little soon to be able to tell for sure if it's the medication or if he's just been on an upswing. It can be hard to judge because he cycles up and down so frequently and without any real pattern. I am very thankful that Chad's weight held steady through both infusions this cycle. He didn't gain any weight but he didn't lose any weight either which is a huge victory since he has lost weight every week since mid-July. Chad is experiencing the same side effects that he always has, they just seem to get louder with each treatment. His neuropathy has increased and he is experiencing numbness for the first time. It is something that we knew could happen but it had not appeared until now. It is happening in his feet and we are monitoring it closely as we don't want him to experience permanent nerve damage. Overall, he's doing as well as can be expected and continues to amaze us everyday. [...]

The Results Are In

Good Evening Everyone!

As you can imagine it was a long, nerve wracking 10 day wait for the radiology report to come back but we finally have the results. After going over it with a fine tooth comb and asking a ton of questions, I can now share what we've learned with all of you. Chad had 2 Cat Scans done on September 6th, one of his chest and one of his abdomen. The chest scan came back completely clear with no change from the previous scans. This is good news as we can celebrate that the cancer has not moved outside of the already identified areas of the body.[...]

Round 2 = Complete

Hello!!

I am stopping by tonight for a swift update. Chad had his 10th infusion last week which completed his second round of chemotherapy. He will have CT Scans Friday morning to evaluate the effectiveness of this most recent round of treatment and I will update you all right away. Please continue to pray and send good vibes, energy and juju in support of our hopes that the scans will show no further progression. You all are wonderful! We feel your love and support and are so thankful for all of you! [...]
