Today was a bit better for Dave. He is on a liquid diet (YUMMY) and they give him Zofran IV before he eats...it is for nausea. They are going to consider giving him something IV tomorrow to boost his appetite. He has kept everything down today. He and Chris walked a lap this afternoon and he and I walked 2 laps between the WSU and KU bbgame.
Dave and I talked last night and today. He too has reservations about the Interleukin treatments at this point. He is weak from weight loss and loss of appetite, It is certainly not that we are giving up, but the side effects are severe and in the past have put his heart under so much stress that we have to weigh the benefits against the risks...the doctors are going to take our concerns into consideration as they decide what course of action to take. If I don't get answers tomorrow, I will call Dr. Doolittle's office myself and request a consult. I am growing very tired of living in a holding pattern. Maybe tomorrow your prayers had better be for the doctors!
Blessings to all...your support is as always....so very appreciated.
