Update - Hopefully winter is behind us but Easter is not passed as yet here in Indiana it can snow up a storm on that day.... - to be 56-70's today.

I am head to Indy with friend in about 2 hours - he had ct-scan on Thursday at Indy and this is to be his dr/chemo/immunology - not sure what is going to be going down - got e-mail of tentative results and it said the Game plan has again changed after only 6 weeks -

On Feb. 25 they add chemo back - Docetaxel but it must not be working as they had hoped..

He has had no bad side effects from it other than sleeping a a lot, some hair loss and his taste for foods are off; have noticed a lot of irritability he yells more at the dog barking and yells at him to "shut up"

He's had a muffled cough almost constantly too. BUT he still rides his bike down to the country store 10+ miles one way - has missed a day or two - generally the days of the dr/chemo/infusion when we roll into home aft 7-8 p.m.; last Thursday - when we got home from ct he oped not to go as was indy and on chilly side and said he did not feel like it.

Not sure what's goign on but will know something sometime after 12 noon our time But what ever will have to manage and carry on..... hope the van lasts out till after October 1st and nothing goes astray... Had planned to start clean-up here outside and start hauling the "junk- crap" off tot he scrape yard, ordered 300 feet of stainless steel Daren hose before starting to burn because everything have is second hand and wants to split wide open or pin holes...

Hello @reibur1951

I am glad for an update from you. Yes, it is good that spring is just around the corner.

I know that hearing that the "game plan has again changed" can be confusing. I hope the information you receive from the doctor helps clear up your understanding and shows a new and better "game plan."

I will be thinking about you. Will you post an update when you are comfortable doing so?
