Praise God...finally finished the treatments. Dan had two pretty rough weeks after treatment ended, then started to slowly feel better. He began using his PEG third week of treatment and is still using it. He is 2 months post treatment and just in the last 2 weeks has started eating and drinking some. It's a slow process, but coming along. Water is hard but he drinks some by mouth everyday now. He can eat some puddings, a little fruit, had some pasta with sauce and did pretty good with that. He would love it to happen much faster, but as said above, patience is the key!
I am so happy for you!!
