That's good news. At least you'll be able to bring a little "home" with you. I'm sure any little comfort is a welcome one at this point.

Still pulling for you! <a href="http://plugin.smileycentral.com/http%253A%252F%252Fwww.smileycentral.com%252F%253F partner%253DZSzeb008%255FZNfox000%2526i%253D36%252 F36%255F1%255F13%2526feat%253Dprof/page.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_13.gif" alt="SmileyCentral.com" border="0"><img border="0" src="http://plugin.smileycentral.com/http%253A%252F%252Fimgfarm%252Ecom%252Fimages%252F nocache%252Ftr%252Ffw%252Fsmiley%252Fsocial%252Egi f%253Fi%253D36%252F36_1_13%2526uiv%253D3.0/image.gif"></a>

 

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Donna as always, please keep us informed and if you need anything just ask.

 

We've yet to meet but I am wishing you two the best also. If you ever just want to talk drop me a line. It can be about the weather, dogs, ford trucks, or anything. Sometimes we all need a little escape from reality. I'm usually on each day or every other day.

Take care.

 

Well, we made it back to Houston. I really don't see how folks can live like this. City life is not my idea of living.
We see the Dr in the AM and then some preliminary tests. More scans Tue. morning and then wait for more appointments to get results. I'll update as we learn more.

 

Here we sit waiting again We saw the Dr yesterday, he actually gave a little hope. We have another test or two this week and then back home to try another round of chemo. If this fails, the next step is clinical trials, non-FDA approved drugs, so more or less guinea pig time. We have a 6:20AM Cat scan this morning, but had to catch the UT police shuttle at 5:15 to get here......hmm.....wonder if I can get a nap after this Donna is sitting here giving everyone looks, no coffee and early wake-up doesn't make her happy.
More later, Jeff & Donna

 

Better than none at all.

 

Thanks for taking the time to keep us up to date.

I don't know how people can live like that either. Once a year at christmas we go to memphis for the wife's family gtg,
Its all of the big city I can stand and then some.

 

Just caught this. May God lift you two up. I pray that you find a cure soon. Until then I will keep you lifted up in my prayers.

 

We're back home. Decided to take Donna to Ardmore OK to see her Dad and brothers while we were out. Spent a few days there and now back home.
We go to LR tomorrow for a proceedure to draw fluid from around her lungs and then start the new chemo Tuesday. Hopefully this will do some good. The scans and Dr's reports were not good, tumors still growing and spreading. She's having a hard time breathing, but I was able to borrow an oxygen concentrator from my sister today, it really seems to help. I think the Dr. will prescribe oxygen this week, the Dr. in Houston said she needed it when we were there.
We are to go through 2 treatments, 3 weeks apart and then back to Houston for another round of scans. If this doesn't help, it is time for experimental treatment. We are also looking into alternative treatments, some actually look very promising.
More later, Jeff

 

My prayers and thoughts are with you both. I know what you`re going thru, my wife passed away this afternoon.

 

Sorry to hear about your wives. I know what y'all are going through as well. My wife is in rehab for breathing problems. She has been in the hospital for three of the last four weeks. She gets out Thursday but will need constant care.

 

Somehow the ''Golden Years'' don`t seem golden any more........

 

Fomoko1, I'm totally speechless....please accept my sincere condolences on your loss

 

Morris, life must go on, although you don't feel like it does at the moment. My wife and I had plans to travel and see this country when she was able to retire next year, so I can relate to your statement.
Hang in there my friend, Jeff

 

Morris...Condolences on your wifes' passing. I'll have a good thought for her on her new journey...and for you on yours!!!
