2/3 dose

Well, he's up to 2/3 dose by last Thursday, August 12 and it didn't make much difference. In fact, I think it's giving him renewed energy. He's pulled out the dead bushes in front of the house with the help of a truck, chain and his good friend, Jason Thomas...eaten at Cafe Rio and Cheesecake Factory...chipped out the tile in the basement (with Jason's help again) for new carpeting...all since taking the chemo pill! He wasn't wanting to do much of that stuff, manual labor or eating out over the past year and a half. If it wasn't Cowboy Grub's roast beef sandwich smothered in gravy, he wasn't interested in going anywhere else. He's thinking of going to the full dose this week sometime. We are just so thankful that this pill hasn't been too rough on him. Hopefully it's doing what it's supposed to which is keeping tumors from growing.
