Carol and I made our regular trek to see the cancer doc a couple of days ago.
The good news is that the latest round of chemo knocked the cancer down by about 30% over the month's time. Blood chemistry also showed improvement, most likely because the cancer being reduced in the bone marrow is allowing the marrow to make better blood.
The bad news is that the latest round of chemo knocked me down by a lot more than 30%. The past three weeks have been extremely difficult, and I am not bouncing back as quickly as usual.
The plan is for me to continue with another round of the full strength chemotherapy, but I will delay its start by 4 to 8 days to give me more time to recover, but not much time for the cancer to do the same.
By the way, the cancer doc still says I am good looking/looking good. Thanks for all your prayers, encouragement and friendship. I thank my God for giving me strength to do whatever He has for me to do each day and to face every trial He places in my pathway.
