Friday week # 5 - a little tense here today

Hi all - We have not been having too great of a day today. Scott has not been feeling too well since last night, he slept well, but has been feeling low and his stomach has been unsettled, even with all the meds.

His weight has dropped about 5 lbs this week, and his blood pressures are low and his pulse is high at times, so they feel his body is under going perhaps too much stress...the radiation RN said they "could" pull him off radiation Monday if he is not better...so we are in a slight panic.

Our RN today at infusion is trying to set up Scott getting his fluids this weekend in Hudson @ the clinic. So we hope we can do that and keep going next week to the finish line. Scott has to step up on the eating though, even though he is not hungry, but lately it does seem that Thursday's &- Friday's are low days for him, but we think the extra fulids on the weekend are a good idea, so we hope we can get things arranged.

I will keep you posted, he just got done eating a good lunch, so I hope he is turning around for the better as I type this. We expect a long day today, at least 3 liters of fluids.
