I am sorry to ramble but just being on YT is what is keeping me going right now. |
Patti,
Should you decide to continue treatment, they can put her on an IV to feed her, and also give her med to combat the nausea. We did that with Tiffany, and it did help. She is losing weight very quickly.
Praying the specialist will be able to help you in your decision. I know, it's not an easy one, I've been there.
Hugs,
Sheila
