Dennycee - I apprecite your kindness. This cycle of Gemzar (his third) has been very hard on him - high fevers, stomach pain, nausea, diarrehea, leg cramps. He has one more treatment, then he'll get a week off, then a PET. He took an extra week off between the last cycle and this one so he wasn't miserable during his sister's funeral. Not sure if that extra week off had something to do with it or not re: this cycle kicking him hard or not. Could just be a combination of all the extra stress he has had, continuing to work, etc. too who knows. I agree WOOOOHOOOO Gemzar is buying him time!
