I have taken a break from tndeer for the last few weeks. Just havent been feeling too well.
Had another scan a couple of weeks ago and the results were not good.
The chemo I have been taken for the last 2 years has just quit working on the cancer. It has been keeping in in check and not letting it spread anywhere and the oncologist said as long as it was doing that, we would keep on with it. But, he said at the get go that one day we would have to explore more options as the cancer would get used to it and more agressive.
Nothing like sitting in the Doctors office and hearing the words " there is nothing else we can do for you "
Wow, wasnt expecting that. It has spread to several other places along with some lymph nodes, and nothing they have will work.
I ask my doctor what he would do. He suggested M.D. Anderson treatment center in Houston. That is where he would go if it were him.
So I filled out an application 2 weeks ago and got accepted there
I will be going to Houston on May 19th to start a new journey. They are a clinical and experimental hospital that offers much more that UT medical.
It has really got me down a bit. Anytime a man faces his mortality he puts things in perspective as to what is important in life.
I dont know where this will take me but I know Im not alone
Not really asking for a healing but for God to give me grace thru this time.
I am really in pain, only sleeping a few hours a night and an losing weight.
So to my tndeer family, I am asking for a few prayers. Me and my family really need them right now.
