Climbing up



The fourth chemo seems to hit harder and faster with various side effects including palpitation, indigestion, extreme fatique, headache, mouth sores, nosebleed, and feeling depressed.  However, thanks to God, GwoHann passed the naider in 7 days, with most of the side effects subsided.  It is a miracle that he recovered faster than the previous cycle.  We attribute it to all the prayers and support from our friends and family.  In less than two weeks, smile has returned to his face and he has resumed most of the activities including hiking 50 minutes a day.  I could hardly catch up with him!

Most important, he coughs less and can breath better!

We will get a PET scan next Monday (the no-carbohydrate diet the day before will be another trial to the will power), and see the oncologist on the following day to discuss the next treatment course. 

Please continue to pray that the treatment is effective and that his immune system is stronger than before, that all the cancer cells will be completely wiped out from his body in no time!
