Day 48

This past weekend was pretty rough.  Scott has dropped another 5lbs.  Today the Dr. told him if he wants to prevent being hospitalized then he needs to keep his liquids and nutrition up.  A new round of medications have been prescribed.  A new pain med, an anti indigestion med and an antibiotic (he may have an infected left cheek).  In the past 30 years, I've only seen Scott tear up at the loss of our infant son Demetri.  Over the weekend, he was brought to tears several times.  I'm sure the pain meds combined with the over all discomfort and loss of control is the cause.  It's not uncommon for cancer patients to experience a bout of depression.  The end of this is so close, although the Dr. did mention today that Scott may have more radiation treatments then the 35 we were hoping for....we should find out tomorrow.
