Wait to hear it from the horses mouth...
At least I had a good 10 months with only the one chemo. It could be better news but it certainly could be a lot worse.

*Sigh*
Phil, I'm sorry to hear this news...slight setback. But you're right, it could be worse! I'm glad you and your doctors have a plan of attack and I'm pulling for you. You inspire so many. I've had the past month off with no chemo and it feels sooo good, so I'm sure you've had a great 10 months. Now back to the grind for both of us. Positive thoughts coming at you!

Had hoped for better news but.........
Glad she has a plan. I'm still praying for you, my friend! I want to dance at your 90th birthday party.

Hi Phil,
Sorry to hear it- I'm thinking about you today getting that CPT-11. Emend was finally the only thing that kept the nausea away. Get something for that & lomotil for the cramping/diahrrea if that becomes a problem for you.
As someone already said, you're quite the warrior- you can do this because you must-
stay strong!!

What a development! I know you've talked about having to get back in the battle again...you sorta saw it coming, but it is always a shock to hear it again.
You and I both had about a 10-month break, and you know I am pulling for you 100% to do what needs to be done.
You're a tough guy so I know you will win this round of the battle...you've done this one before...hang in there, Ol' Timer.

I'm sorry Phil, I hope your CPT 11 isn't too rough. It was easier for me than Folfox 4 but I know this stuff is different for everyone. You are a strong fighter. I see that you have been on site since 2005. I hope I can be as strong I have only been fighting since 2007. You give me courage. Wishing you the best.
Thanks

Phil:
I absolutely hate the fact that you are having a setback.
I also know that you are strong, intelligent, informed, grounded (and perhaps a bit edgy) and that you have trusted your health to doctors at what is arguably the most prestigious cancer center in the country. You clearly have the intelligence to make critical decisions about your health. That your oncologist would act with such confident decisiveness to put you into stepped-up treatment today is pretty impressive. I know that I appreciate doctors who act with such confidence. My husband's oncologist acts that way and I take great comfort in his knowledge, instincts and courage.
As Lance would say, "unity is strength, knowledge is power and attitude is everything."
