Cindy Status #10
Friends,
We were favorably impressed with Dana Farber and the Oncologist yesterday.
Pre-Chemo Strategy remains the same:
– Gain Weight: Docs say Cindy can eat anything. Unfortunately she gets full very quickly and has no real appetite.
– Reduce Pain: Doc prescribed new pain meds, hopefully time and new meds will help.
Per discussion with new Oncology Doc Cindy has “Spread Colon” a chronic disease that can be controlled, not cured (currently). The plan is to use a cocktail of one or more of the 7 FDA approved colon cancer drugs to stop the cancer without causing too much damage to Cindy’s body. If the 1st cocktail becomes less effective, a new cocktail is created – bi-monthly CT scans close the feed back loop.
Any input regarding what Cindy will Want to eat is appreciated.
Not much else to report.
Just have to thin me down (eating in sympathy) and fatten her Up!
Love,
Andy
