just to avoid cufnusion Warren F nd Patti F are essentialy the same. WE are husband/wife and often post forgetting who was logged in. It I Warren who has the easiser of our two endevours of going through cancer treatment while
Patti has to care for me and our 2 daughers, ages 2.5 and 1 through this ordeal.

So I'm (Warren) a bit latein posting my weekly update post. 17 down / 13 to go. So far sideeffects are minimal. Taste is mainly neutal bu can taste some things and noting tastes bad yet. Some sores and a soar throat kicked in about a week go but thye seemed to have healed thmselves. Maybe the excess mucous coats the throat easing the pain. haven't needed any pain meds yet and am eating OK and getting plenty of liquids in me. this weak will get me to 4 down, 2 to go. not sure what to expect for these nxt 2 wks. i have been working this whole tme but getting tired late week and sleepin most of saturdays.
