Merrill went to the Cancer Center yesterday. We had Neil meet us there. We talked to Dr. Rich, he showed us the results of Merrill's CT scan. It shows that the tumors haven't grown very much since January.
We talked about when Merrill's sugar levels drop that he gets shakey and when he tries to stand that he gets off balance and sometimes falls. And that he's been feeling very tired the last two times he came in for Chemo. And Merrill fell Wednesday night. We all agreed with Dr. Rich that Merrill needs a break from Chemo. So he did not have chemo, Dr Rich will still take blood samples and test it. Then a few days later we will go in and talk to him and see how the counts and marker are doing and they will tell us if Merrill needs to start chemo again. If Merrill wants to start it. I will go for now and let you know later how things are going.
Love Iris and Merrill
Merrill and Iris. Some trees grow together for many years and learn to stand tall when the winds and the snows come. Sometimes there is sunshine, sometimes clouds. Sometimes they provide cover for others who pass their way. Through it all they grow together in love in the soil of this earth and throughout all eternity.
