Please say a prayer or positive thoughts for my DH

[Patti]

Thanks. Ken is at home and mostly sleeping. Eating hardly at all and hard to get his meds down him. Our daughter spent the day with him yesterday and he was more alert with her than he has been in days. My BIL sat with him today while my sister and I ran out and he said Ken slept the whole time. We see his oncologist tomorrow and will know more of what the future holds. I am so grateful for all your prayers.

You seem to have so much going on. I think of you and Ken often. And I have to agree with another poster you need to be taking care of yourself. Sending prayers and hugs

Throughout Ken's illness, I have been praying for you. I know what i's like to love someone like you love Ken and feel powerless to help them in that way that you so desperately want to. Your love is very powerful, Patti, and you give of your huge heart so freely. I hope the sun is shining for you tomorrow and that you both are feeling more hopeful.

Dear Patti, Good to hear your sister and her hubby are back, glad your daughter spent yesterday with Ken.

I continually am lifting you both in prayer, it is understandable that Ken would want to be at home, I just hope that you can get some outside help Patti. I know being a full time care giver is really the hardest time in ones life, and it isn't easy to get help, and is quite expensive through health care sources. God is always with us and carries us through what life deals us, Bless you Patti.

I pray that Ken can draw strength through everyone's prayers, and soon be wanting and able to eat more.

Love from us both, Patti and Jack

Thinking of you today Patti, and your meeting with the oncologist. Praying Ken is feeling stronger today, praying for his comfort.

Thanks. The oncologist and the PA said his CT scan was stable with some minor improvement. He felt that Ken was suffering the effects of the chemo and that in 2 weeks he should start feeling much better. He does not want to put in a feeding tube yet. He is afraid of infection and does not think Ken can take another procedure. So they switched his appetite stimulant to Marisol and want him to start the antidepressant. They think that understandably so he is depressed or apathetic and therefore not eating. I am just praying Ken will start to eat soon. I went and carried out his favorite hamburger and he ate 2 nibbles and 2 fries. He will get hydration 2 times a week and we meet back with the oncologist in 2 weeks. I know Ken will not do anymore chemo so I am praying he can gain some strength and remain stable for a long time. I can't believe how exhausting it is to try and get some one to eat and drink that doesn't want to. Thanks for sticking by us!

I am so happy to hear there was good news on the CT scan and I hope Ken was given a lift hearing this.

I can imagine it is exhausting encouraging him to eat. My family went through the same thing with my mother. Praying that the appetite stimulant and antidepressant will help with that.
