Avastin Again

I don't know if anyone is reading the blog anymore since it's been so long since I wrote a new entry, but as Mandy's comment said a few days ago, Wayne was finally approved for medicaid and his avastin was finally restarted.  He enjoyed a nice break from it, and during the break he has grown stronger, which has been wonderful.  He is no longer using a walker in the house.  He has been feeling better and eating better.  But with the good comes the bad, and the avastin knocked him on his butt.  I rhink it feels even worse because he had gotten so much better.  But tonight he was feeling terrible, and he climbed in bed at nine.

He got another chest xray a week and a half ago, and even without the avastin his tumor has continued to get smaller although not a lot.  He has another chest xray again next week and I hope that the addition back of the avastin will have decreased the size again.  I'll let you know.  Sorry about the long time in between entries--my computer has been down for several weeks.

  1. Glad to hear that the computer is working again. Wayne, glad to hear that the tumor continues to shrink. Now with new teeth on the way you should be able to eat lots of good food. Even some junk food if you like. You should be able to eat when you want and what you want. That is our privilage of being our age. Love You !!!
