Handling Chemo.

This past week was an exhausting one, but George has done well. The Doctors and our chemo nurse prepared George for how he would likely feel in the immediate days following the chemo infusion. He had all the classic symptoms they said he would, just like clock-work, and now we're in the up swing mode. Last Tuesday he was feeling OK, just tried and with slight nausea. On Wednesday night the symptoms really set in, and a few tough days followed . George was given medicine to help with the nausea, but it doesn't take it completely away. He is now doing better, just extremely fatigued. We have had a quiet weekend, and are looking forward to the start of next week. This will be the "Off" chemo week, so George is hoping to tackle some things on his "to do" list.
On Sunday, George's cousin Dan will be over to help entertain the kids, and be sure that George is eating and drinking enough while I head into work to get some hours in. How grateful we are for all the help that has been offered. 

Our Specific Prayer request is:
That George is able to handle the Chemo treatments well, and is able to eat enough in order to gain back some weight.
That words of encouragement continue to come in, as we stay focused on the fact that we can win!!
