Tomorrow depending on labs we are to be admitted for final chemo, and final RT is weds! I plan on updating his doc and PA while we are in re his only taking two cans of the six prescribed fdgs. I did put my mean nurse hat last nite,when he refused any more of the fdg.....today he actually took four cans... Progress? He has not used fluoride trays, have no idea if he is taking his meds, he wont try the suction machine, prefers to run to bathroom. he had been resistant to using water pik too,bit i briefly told him how to use, filled it, and put a stickie on it that said "Try me " and well now I hear him using it frequently now....everything is a struggle.
