Thanks for the reply, Mary! It means alot to hear from a fellow caregiver! We are having similar experiences with our cancer battle. I like to know as much as I can, some of us are content to take the doctors' lead. Everyone in my family has had a skill or gift that has contributed to the fight,
i.e. my sister is able to keep us focused so we don't spend too much time on matters that may detract from more immediate issues.
By the way, good news! My father has found out that the amifostine(ethyol) is not in conflict with his treatment, just the clinical trial, which he has chosen not to do. So after some research and careful thought he has decided to have this added to his treatment. I am now researching caregiving, as his treatment protocol is now locked in.Thanks again for your input and i am glad you husband has his life back again!
