Mike does his chemo at home. He gets a three hour "push", at a higher rate, at Roswell, then does the rest at home. We think that this Monday will be his last chemo session, then he will switch to a pill. His oncologist told him 8 doses was the maximum. He has had some issues with GI bleeds because the chemo has shrunk the cancer so much.
He goes in Monday, and we are hoping that because it has shrunk, we may have more options.0 -
