Hello. Mark got infused yesterday at the Cancer Center. All went well (as well as can be expected). He didn't have any reactions this time. They held the leukovorin. We visited with Dr. Farmer this time and she felt like things would be okay. Of course we'll have to wait and see. The next infusion is December 29th and Mark will get another CEA number then. That will help determine if the treatment without the leukovorin is still effective.
Mark is still hooked up to the chemo here at home. He will get unhooked tomorrow around noon. He is pretty worn out. He has been eating a little and keeping some fluids in which is good. We are hoping he rebounds for Emily's birthday this Saturday and for Mark's birthday on Sunday.
It is nice that the week of Christmas will be Mark's off week of chemo. We will pray hard that he doesn't get sick this time and he actually has a week of feeling good so that we can enjoy the holiday.
We've certainly enjoyed getting all of the Christmas cards from everyone. I love the pictures. They're always so fun and seeing all the kids grow is unbelievable.
Continue to pray for Mark's recovery and health. I hope everyone has a heartwarming Christmas. Be safe everyone. God bless!!!!!!!
