Week 3

When the doctors are right, they are right. Tom is having a hard time trying to do what he wants. His strength and will power are not agreeing with his will. Sunday Tom tried to make it to church, but in the end decided to stay home. Monday was the start of week 3 treatments and Tom had a rough night. Tom was having a difficult time chewing his food small enough to swallow it. Later that evening he was chilled, achy, and feeling down right cruddy. He was seriously talking about starting the liquid diet. So we are onto another path in Tom's treatment process, ready or not. It's hard to helplessly watch your loved one get weaker and sicker each day, knowing that things will get worse before they will get better and that he will not turn that corner in a day, week, or even month from now. The kids are quickly learning that dad is still not feeling all that well. Kyle is quick to give him lots of hugs! Please continue to pray for Tom's health, strength, positive attitude, and that these treatments will kill all carcinoma cells.
