Just an update on what kind of medicine I will be taking. There are 3 chemotherapy drugs: Xeloda, a pill to be taken daily; and 2 IV induced drugs, Oxaliplatin and Epirubicin. The nurse says I've been given an aggressive schedule since I really look healthy (presumably that will never do for someone with cancer). The side effects are all the ones you hear about, hair falling out, not that that is a problem, and nausea; plus there is one drug that sometimes causes extreme reaction to cold. Please pray for me to have minimal reactions so I can get through the treatment ok.
Thanks,
Chuck

We are praying for you tomorrow, Chuck! Thanks for keeping us posted and let us know specific prayer requests. Love, Steve and Wanda
I think that this blog is a great idea. It keeps you consistently before us and directs our prayers. I could tell you what we have been praying, but that would ruin the card we sent in the mail.
