Chemo Treatment number 4

This is a little late but I figured I would tell everyone who doesn't know, what happened during the last treatment. The doctor felt that my neurotoxicity was getting a little bad to let go so they decided to put me in the hospital for the duration of the treatment. To make a long story short the effects while I was in the hospital were much better but the aftermath was still pretty rough. There is no easy way to deal with chemo. I am learning about humility and pride though. I learning even more about patience. They are giving me a premed that is a steroid that is causing my blood sugar to skyrocket. They might even think I am a diabetic now. This is such a battle of the mind that sometimes I am mentally exhausted. I put my wife and kids through a mess with mood swings. I am so blessed to have them though. They are most definitely the best medicine. I will begin my next treatment on Friday 8/1 the day after I have a cat scan and talk to my doctor. We are almost there. Praise God!
