FIL is back in hospital for pneumonia again, he has not had chemo since JUNE because the drs said it would hinder instead of help at that point.....now he has been in hospital 5 days, he has MRSA and pneumonia and tumors in his lungs.....he can hardly breathe but he truly does look better,


his mucus is bright green and extremey thick, they took 3 jars fluid off his lungs 2 days ago........


encologist wants to start him back up on chemo tomorrow....it just seems he has so much against him that I cannot see how this will help him? it seems like too much for his lungs to take? He also has COPD, asthma and allergies....


dr came in at midnight to see him so we do not know how blunt he was with him....maybe he told him this is his only chance? That i dont know....


Anyhow has anyone gone thru pneumonia and chemo at same time? thanks for all help
