I helped to lower the water levels in our lakes yesterday. I drank 8 sixteen oz. glasses of water in hopes of avoiding blisters on my tongue and it worked. Today I'm tuning in to a webcast on cancer and nutrition sposored by the International Myeloma Foundation. The slides for the presentation, presented by the Providence Portland Cancer Center in Portland, OR, are on the IMS site. They have good tips for cancer avoidence for all. Take a look.
So far I am tolerating my chemo/steroid treatments pretty well. I'll get an early reading next week as to whether I'm actually responding. If I am, good, if not then they will add another chemo drug to the mix (Velcade) which will require infusion (port or IV) at the local oncology center.
Hey Robert,
ReplyDeleteThe church group is a great idea, it will help with the fear factor. I ready to join one in Nutley, if I can find one.
Have a good day.

Sounds like a busy day, Robert! Good thing you are not in Jersey, we're in a water shortage! lol I'm going to watch that webcast later today after taking Mom to the ENT Surgeon to see if he can do anything about her broken cheekbone. Keep drinking the reservoir! :)

How was the webinar? I didn't make it due to a patient who needed my attention a bit more. Are they posting it with the commentary online?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you have the support system that you do. Hard to ask the right question if you don't know what to expect. But sounds like your getting all the good scoop. Keep it up!
