Thank you Don for your welcome. Yes, the peg is finally working well. We think the chemo made it hard to get the infection around the peg healed. But antibiotics and no chemo for a while helped. Ron noticed the swelling(tumor)in January, and mentioned it to the doctor he had that time. They thought (!!!) it was a swelling as a result of the radiation he had the summer before, as he had more swellings, small ones, and they would go away with massaging. But this one did not. It was April when they found out it was cancer again. The tumor was huge by that time. He can't have rad anymore and the chemo is not working so that is stopped. He has no treatment at this moment. We are waiting for an appointment for a phone conference in Yorkton hospital, as the doctor is from Regina.(saskatchewan)We heard last Monday that chemo has no use anymore, and wait since that time for the phone conference. The doctor said he had to talk to other doctors to see what they can do next.

We are being treated in a large city. Not much choice in Saskatchewan, to be honest. Traveling is very very uncomfortable for Ron, and Regina is 3.5 hours with the bus. (truck is not good enough for long travels)
Ron also has lots of mucus, so I'm thinking of that mobile suction machine mentioned in another thread here.Ron has problems speaking too. Lots of times I really can not understand him. He also seems to get more and more depressed, or just out from medication, I'm not even sure which one it is. We don't talk so much anymore, because it hurts him so much. It's a hard road.
