So glad he is eating today that's such a huge part of keeping strength up!!!

Praying for you guys everyday!

Thinking about you and still praying for you.

Patti, thinking of you and Ken today. Hoping that Ken is feeling better and that you are taking care of yourself. Sending prayers and hugs to you both.

TxVicki · 10-27-2011, 05:15 PM

Just stopping by to let you know prayers still going out and to check on how his appointment went today.

Thanks. Ken had his chemo today but he is very anemic so he has to go back tomorrow for 2 pints of blood. They said it would take 6 hours! The doctor said he would feel a lot better once he has the transfusion. They lowered his dose of chemo because of the anemia. Now he goes next week for another chemo and then the following week for a CT scan. Then we meet with the doctor to see if the current chemo drugs are effective or if he needs different ones. When we got home tonight Ken had an episode of shortness of breath that really scared me I was ready to call 911 but he felt he would be ok. It passed after 15 minutes and now he has been sleeping ever since. Hopefully he will sleep well tonight and feel better tomorrow. Your continued prayers and support mean so much!

Patti, we are still here for you every day, praying for Ken and sending hugs to you. Hang in there.

Thanks. Ken had 2 pints of blood transfused today and looks and feels much better. Since we got home a couple of hours ago he has been up and active. I haven't seen him get up this much in months. His color went from white to normal during the transfusion. The oncology nurse came in and said your color looks so much better than yesterday. So thanks everyone for the continued prayers and support. He has an echo next week to see about the fluid on his heart. I am praying it has resolved and he won't need surgery to remove it. Hugs

Maximo · 10-28-2011, 02:42 PM

Very happy to hear he is doing so well today! Wish we could give him a pint of blood every day. I think your YT friends would happily donate.

Sending prayers that the echo and future scans will return more happy news.

I hope you and Ken have a great weekend.

It is so wonderful to read this goooood report. So glad he's got some blood, energy and the iPad to keep him busy. Keeping that mind of his from worrying will help him.

I am hoping Ken is still feeling better after the transfusion.

Prayers still continue.

Thanks. Ken had another good day. He was up more and eating more. My brother and sister came over with my BIL and my brothers GF and her 6 year old son Kyle . It was trick or treat day in my town so we took Kyle trick or treating and the guys hung around with Ken. So he enjoyed that. I am hoping this round of chemo doesn't wipe out his red cells and he can continue to feel better and have his next chemo Thursday. Thanks for the prayers, every good day is a blessing.

enchilila · 10-30-2011, 07:09 PM

Patti, I'm so glad to hear Ken is feeling better and that he enjoyed his company. Continued prayers are coming your way.

Micah my love · 11-01-2011, 05:09 AM

Still thinking of you both praying that all gets better for your family

Patti · 11-01-2011, 02:36 PM

Thanks! I am praying we get good news after the echocardiogram tomorrow. We see the cardiologist right after. If the fluid is going away on it's own he doesn't have to have it drained inpatient. So if I could ask for your continued prayers we would appreciate it so much.
