Matt's radiation will be complete this Friday for the met. bone growth. He's dropped more weight with the radiation side effects of nausea and no appetite. He's down to 194 now. (Last summer he was about 280 pre dx.) They got him back on anti-nausea and megace and today he couldn't wait to eat lunch! Thank God. I was getting very worried that he'd waste away. Yesterday he was very fragile emotionally and it was hard to leave the house to come to work. We watched a movie last night cuddled up in bed to make up for it. Thursday is the next chest CT to see if anything new has popped up lately. Results will follow the next week on the 9th. It is going to be a very long week of waiting.
