controlling uncontrollable runs.

Eats a few crackers and a slice of cheese plus some fruit with much
difficulty. A bowl of Cream of wheat (1/2 serving) daily. Gagging on all.
Taking Lasix to clear water gain (gaining weight despite not eating much),
it's not working either.
We fear more new prescriptions, which will only make results worse.
I have thoughts of removing her from the targeted drugs (2) she's taking
just to see if this clears. We'll say what the Dr. says. These drugs will kill her
before the cancer does.
Not a good way for her to live.
I can sympathize with Doug (DAB), it sucks big time.
Later.
**** cancer. Prayers sent.

So you want the bath sheet, bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths? Get extra wash cloths. Sam’s has nice towels. You would have to take them to be monogrammed. JC Penny used to have monogrammed towels.

Good luck stealing my shit

Pro Tip- If you use a fake name when picking up girls at bars...Have a cover story/excuse ready if she goes back to your place and notices something doesn't add up

Edit- No idea why the third pic posted differently.

Ask your doc.

Best prayers for your wife.
Thanks, but she has it, and has had it taken off here list. Oxycodone was removed too, but we got the OK to go back on it last week.
Lasix is to reduce leg and ankle swelling.
Lungs are clear, The fluid build up is outside of the lungs and around the heart and stomach. Dr advises that Lasix won't remove this build-up, and may need another puncture extraction in a week or 2. See below comments/side effects.

Thanks also to all for your well wishes and prayers.
The ride home was particularly rough, constant dry heaves all the way home (16 miles, 35minute drive) Piss poor road conditions are the worst.
Today's visit resulted in a temporary 2 week suspension of the Catmatinib target drug which is a cross-over to the brain cancer reducing pill that has greatly reduced most of Marianne's masses, and completely removed all traces of cancer in her brain. 5 day half life of the drug is expected, so we'll have a phone check-up in a week to gauge any improvement, then on to another clinic visit in two weeks for a possible restart @ 1/4 dosage of the drug.
All of these side effects we're losing control of are also from this same drug, thus we're afraid of the stoppage for any length of time.
Bowl of cream-of-wheat will be her meal for the day.
She's back on the couch and sleeping for now.
