It’s Friday and that is a goal in itself. After another boost appointment not too much has changed. My throat is maybe hurting a little more than usual- the Morphine should help with that. There was a definite change with sleep last night. I still woke up maybe 3 times in the night, but the morning I slept in till 9:30am. This is a first for me probably in my life. Morphine is a first for me as well. The Morphine does give me a little more head-fog though. Tonight I went ahead and mixed some into my Ensure- Pretty awesome, right?

Yes, so I guess I am to blame for waking him during the early a.m. time; however, I am a paranoid sister and want to make sure that his night went ok. So, yes, as I said last night we are on the downhill slope. We are moving into week 7 of treatments. Travis’ last treatment is scheduled for November 6th, 2012. That means there are 7 treatments left after today! Then it’s all about the recovery stage and the prayers that all the Cancer is gone and won’t come back.
Travis did sound a little raspy over the phone today. I just hope that he continues to keep the liquids down and continues to eat. This is the point where I think Travis was thinking he would have a feeding tube put in. As long as we can keep him eating and passing liquids down his throat then we can avoid this all together.

So glad an end is in sight to these sucky treatments.
What a good sister you are, Danielle.
Travis as been such a trooper through all this.
Let’s all pray that Travis’s taste buds come back soon, that his mouth sores heal fast, and that he has minimum lingering side effects afterwards.
Love to all your family
Am so happy to hear that Travis has less treatments left then what I thought. We pray that they are not too unbearable. They will most likely be the toughest treatment days because of the same dose only in smaller area. Think about all of you every day and continue to pray, pray, pray.
It is so hard being so far away but this web site has been a real blessing.
Our prayers continue for perfct healing so going through this will all be worth it! We love you. Soctt and Kris
Love and Prayers are with you always. Prayers are answered. You are so amazing and a true inspiration. Thank you Danielle and Travis both for making this website.
