Sunday-Sitting here watching the marathon with my boy. He loves seeing the roads near Sloan and the runners are the bridge that we take every time we head in.
Yesterday he tried his luck at another poker tournament. He was not focusing and got out after an hour. Thank goodness I had company, Moira and Bernadette. He is having trouble breathing. He was emailing the drs and finally spoke to his dr in the afternoon. We will be going in tomorrow or Tuesday to get an X-ray and see if it is the fluid causing him to have difficulty. He has to sleep a certain way and now is having some back pain. It is so heartbreaking to watch. He is in control and we will get him checked out in the next day or two. Not sure what the next step is. I spoke to the nurse practitioner that we are friends with and she said it is always hard to take that next step when you have had no symptoms and now you do. That is where Cody is. He seems very nervous and he has to be scared too. I know I am. I hear a cough every now and then. It really can't get better without some intervention and the realization is hitting me that the chemo is not working.
That's all for now...
I hope that as soon as Cody has some intervention to alleviate his breathing difficult he will begin to feel better and that with that strength, he will kick this latest series of issues to the curb. Sending strength and love to you both.
