Check in time Mar 19th - They have stopped the immunology the last being YERVOY® (ipilimumab) & OPDIVO® (nivolumab) he has had all t he standard chemo and immunology drugs and been through 3-4 clinicals - a suggestion was possible clinicals in Chicago but he refused CT showed New parenchymal infiltrate left midlung, Mediastinum and soft tissues. several less than 1 cm maximum short axis diameter anterior carinal nodes Lungs. Emphysema. Stable of atelectasis apical segment right upper lobe.Stable 1 cm nodule in the region of the apical segment bronchus New subsegmental right middle lobe and right lower lobe groundglass infiltrates. New anterior segment left upper lobe mixed groundglass and consolidative infiltrates. Similar findings seen in the lingula and left lower lobe. These findings may represent infection versus radiation changes. No new nodules or masses. Central airways normal. His cough is about the same - they put him on 60mg of prednisone for 21 days - next visit is APril 8th via phone

House coming along - changed realtors & companies on Tuesday (16th) as other was up - she raised the price and had 7 calls from Tuesday to yesterday - 2 yesterday when I was with her and we took one to look at it. Think made right choice dumping the other - she thinks it could sell very soon at this rate.

Clean-up of the 5.2A still going on seems endless things keep popping up out of ground - down to 2 storage trailers, a tractor; and 3 vehicles and miscellaneous tin/shred stuck every where - 10 dumpsters of metal out, 8 of trash besides what we burnt - and no friend with lung cancer does not help have a friend who has come up from Indy to help was friends with his father - without him i think i would of gave up and walked away letting it go for back taxes... still may end up walking away after get most of the bigger stuff hauled out - its extra money for furniture, appliances etc. but it should be sellable - in fact the one contractor of the culver house is interested in it or was.

@reibur1951- Hello and good morning! It sounds as if you have been pretty busy! It sounds like your friend has made some serious decisions. Not knowing how he is doing, like walking or getting out of the house it's difficult to know what to ask. Is it time for hospice?

@reibur1951

Always good to hear from you with an update. How is your friend's breathing? Does he use oxygen on a regular basis?

Glad to know that your property is getting some action. With spring on the way, folks might be thinking about buying land and building.

Does your friend have you listed as his patient advocate at this point?
