Hungry?

For the past week Gary has not been able to eat solid foods without getting cramps and diarrhea, so he has soup and lots of Pedialyte.  We know it is from the increased dose of chemo he just completed last Tuesday, but it is still hard to see.  This is a guy who loves food and he doesn't even feel hungry.

He is weak, but he will not succumb to it and is constantly doing projects around the house when he is not at work.  Yes, he is working full time and I think, as does he, it is a great distraction.

We want to plan a trip after the chemo stops and hopefully we can make that happen.  First of all we don't know when it will stop.  We know he has 2 more courses of EPOCH-R and then it depends on the clinical trial whether he will not get anything or get Bortizamib twice a week.  The unknown is hard.
