Ok guys this is not the same man Jorge just got his 2nd chemo today and he is still up at 10 pm. And man he has eaten a lot today and singing this man is just blowing me away on his 1st chemo 2 weeks ago he was so mean and rude and all he did was sleep. Maybe all this good today is because his mother is here I told her today you should be here every time jorge is on chemo because he's a good boy when your here . All I can say is wow thanks all hugs you to all Tina

    Steroids
    He might be on a steroid too, this helps with the chemo, but keeps you hyped. It kept me from sleeping for the first three days. Glad he is better though. Makes things easier.

    I am glad Jorge is doing
    I am glad Jorge is doing good! We have you in our thoughts all the time.

    The beginning of Chemo was tough that there is all of these new feelings. Lips tingling, hands cold, stomach aching, diarrhea, cannot sleep, etc..... This will balance out at round 4 or so. It tool a while for me to get used to the pump. My sleep schedule was wacky for the seven months of chemo. Two weeks after chemo stopped I was on a normal schedule again.

    Best Always, mike

    That's great!
    I had my second chemo yesterday and I feel great today! I know that this is in part what they gave me to go with the chemo. Hopefully all the rest for Jorge will be like this! We will just keep plowing through!

    good to hear
    Glad to hear Jorge did well this time. Roby had his 2nd round today. Walked out wanting to eat and now he's asleep in his recliner. No major side effects last time, said the cold drink bothered his throat this time.

    Wendy glad you are feeling so good.

    Have a great evening.
