Secret Cancer

This week my husband had another gem/cis chemotherapy treatment. He almost didn’t get it, because a liver value was elevated, but they decided to give it to him anyway. We are thankful he got to get his treatment even though he is miserable now. He is constipated and bloated. The nurses said that next time he gets treatment, they can give him a pill to take, that will help him with this. We have a doctors appointment next week to discuss how well the treatment is working or if it is working at all. This should be my main focus of concern and worry, but it is not.

My grandma has been in the hospital since September. She is 83 years old. She had a really bad case of pneumonia. I really thought she would pull through but now she is in ICU on a ventilator. This really makes me sad. I have not had a chance to talk to her or see her. She lives in the US and I live in a Scandinavian country. I feel terrible and am worried that I may have missed my chance to see her or talk to her. The day after my husbands doctors appointment I will be on a plane to the US. I just hope I can make it in time.
