Prayers being said for Ken ...and also for you, Patti ...God Bless you both..

Thanks! Ken had his 3rd of 9 treatments today and has to have a blood transfusion tomorrow due to low hemoglobin count. He is getting so discouraged. The music therapist never showed up. I felt so bad for Ken he brought his 12 string guitar and was looking forward to learning some Irish songs from her. Also one of the lymph nodes in his neck has doubled in size the past week. We saw the oncologist on the way out and stopped to ask him about it. He said that he wasn't that concerned as he knew there was involvement above the collar bone and he wanted to wait a few more weeks to see if the new chemo is working. We are still worried though that it is growing while on the new chemo. I am still telling Ken to think positive and pray for the cure.

Thanks. Ken has been having severe back pain on his spine. He had an MRI of his back this morning at 6 am. We should know the results in a day or two. We are so afraid that the cancer has spread to his bones. All prayers are so appreciated!

Prayers and love for you and Ken!

Ken's MRI showed a compression fracture in his spine and tiny spots of metastatic disease. They are stopping chemo for 3 weeks to do 2 1/2 weeks of radiation on his spine. The chemo he is on is not compatible with radiation. I am so concerned that in spite of all his chemo treatments the cancer is still spreading. Thanks for the continued support and prayers.

Have you all thought at all about trying another cancer center or are they really hard to get into or far away? I'm keeping Ken lifted up to his Father in prayer and hoping so hard to hear some good news before too long.
