Kenny Update--September 16th

21 more days or one additional round of chemo to go. Tomorrow starts an off week and 7 days of recovery before the last scheduled 2 week round of chemo begins. This week has been in a word – nauseous. Kenny has been keeping 4 out of 5 boost drinks down but there has been one, somewhere in the day that has just not agreed with him. His weight has been stable so it has n

ot been an issue this time around.

Kenny started showing significant hearing loss in his left ear. One of the things that will need to be checked out once he has had some down time. We are patiently waiting for the MRI to be scheduled so we can see what the ‘official’ tumor size is and get an idea of where he is with the treatment that has been given.

Kenny and I were able to attend service today at Indian Creek for the first time in 5 weeks.

Praises
Weight is stable.
We are in countdown mode to finishing treatment.
Kenny has been keeping up with school so far this year.

Prayer concerns
All of the cancer cells die.
Hearing loss is not significant and does not start in the other ear.
Rest can soon cover the entire household.

Thank you everyone for your prayers

Kenny Update--September 3rd

The fever has been gone for nearly one full week and his weight has been stabilized. Kenny is feeling better than he has for some time but I suspect that it is due to being off of chemo for 3 straight weeks. Tomorrow chemo restarts.

Prayer concerns
Kenny can complete the final 2 chemo cycles without interruption
Weight
The remaining cancer cells (if any) will just plain die

Praises
His weight is stable

Thank you one and all for your prayers!
