Hi Scott,

Speaking as a nurse I think it's great that your Dad has his own private duty team who care only about him. That support cannot be dulicated and don't underestimate how much it is helping him keep that positive attitude. It does sound like he's right where he should be at this point unfortunately. There were days when we couldn't see he'd ever be able to eat again or have taste or be pain free or that the nausea would end. Some of his symptoms got worse after the treatment ended but I want you to konw that it did get better. One day Jack woke up and didn't feel lousey and he started coming back to our "new normal".

This too shall pass, and how lucky he is to have such a caring and involved family.

Regards JoAnne
