Sorry I have not updated lately. Michael has not been feeling good this time and the days just seem to slip by lately. He did not "bounce back" as well this time. You can tell the treatments are taking a toll on him. You can see it in his face. He still is fighting a cold and just don't feel right. He is still experiencing some neuropathy in his fingers and is having some pain in his back and legs.
We did go to the oncologist on Monday. His counts are "OK". Most of them are on the "low" side of normal, but his platelets are the lowest they have been. Currently they are too low to begin his Chemo-Cycle 5 on Monday the 19th. We will go to the meet the oncologist in his office on Monday and have more lab work done. If his platelet count does not come up by then, they will postpone his treatment one more week.
The doctors are also concerned with his neuropathy. They will re-evaluate his neuropathy on Monday and decide at that time if they might cut back on one of his chemotherapy meds.
I will try to give an update later in the week. Please keep him in your prayers.
