A Hard Day

Chemotherapy has been really rough on Mom yesterday and today.  She has had a difficult time eating and keeping anything down.  Part of this is the Chemo and part is probably the giant tumor in her stomach.  It seems at every turn this just keeps getting harder.  She commented, "Why can't any of this be easy?"  We had some discussions today about the possibility of a feeding tube, but Dad decided to talk with Bill Dunsen (Friend, Doctor, our Hero) he suggested being vigilant with the anti-nausea medicines and doubling up on two of them.  If it still continues to be difficult for her to get nutrition they will go the IV route first.  Mom is fighting, but she is tired and this is so difficult.
