27 down 8 to go

Troy is doing well. There's not a lot to report. His tongue is the most painful part of his body right now. The treatments have caused various ulcers to form all over it and it is just killing him. His throat is sore and he has occasional bouts of nausea. He feels tired a lot because he can't sleep well at night and the treatments are causing fatigue. I know it must sound like he can't be doing all that well with everything I'm listing, but comparatively speaking he really is blessed. I have heard stories of other cancer patients being hospitalized because of their side effects and I have seen other patients in the chemo room at Dr. Goldsweig's office who don't look well at all. One of them was taken away by paramedics. We're thankful that Troy can start his recovery process soon and we will continue to let you know how things are going.
