After a recurrence and mets to several bones and now a new spot on the affected lung, my husband has begun to experience pain in his upper abdomen and hips and back. An ultra sound was done to see if gall bladder was acting up as he is experiencing a severe gag reflex at even the mention of food and the abdominal pain. They wanted to see if there were any blockages, as they said that could be corrected. His liver (has many cancer lesions) is acting up. It started with abnormal function readings, which have stabilized, but the bilirubin count is 5.4 as of last Monday. He is slightly jaundiced and has the "orange" urine. After ct and ultra sound they could not find any blockages. They believe it can be damage by the taxol or simply the cancer in the liver reeking havoc. My love was given pain medication and must take nausea meds to get through the day. He seems to be losing all his muscle as the only thing he consumes is hot tea, small portions of creamed soups, applesauce and Boost. The fatigue is severe. |

From 12-21-10 POST An inspiration
Dear ones,
My Love Dennis has gone to a place of glory, a place of peace and no pain. We were blessed with short suffering and pain and a calm came over him as he said good-by.
You all gave him inspiration, hope and knowledge. He would wish that you who are survivors continue your quest in this life. That the miracle that is your life continue to inspire all who see and know you.
With a saddened heart,
Luz Del Lago
