I so agree with Gary. Dan felt worse for at least two weeks post treatment and really didn't start feeling much better that whole month. However, now he is 3.5 months post treatment and feeling much better; PEG tube came out about 3 weeks ago. He still has really no taste yet, but trying to eat enough to survive and not lose more weight. Life does get better and I just praise God for how much better he is now than even last month and believe me, it's like almost 100% better than end of treatment and weeks after!
Take care and God bless,
Debbie
