We went to see the dr that is going to be following through with Don after the treatments are done. They keep watch for 5 years. He was very upbeat and said things were going great with the treatments. He said that the food taste would get worse before it gets better. He also said that it's okay to lose weight to get down to the weight that he wants to be and then maintain that. That's pretty much where Don is with his weight now so that's good. The trick is not to gain when he gets back on real food. But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. He was full of lots of info. This dr only treats patients with head and neck cancer. Who would have know it was a specialty.
So I think Don is feeling better about things. That's good because Tuesday and the rest of the week he will need things to feel good about. Monday night we are having girls night at our house to watch Argos and eat chinese food. We figure we'll cheer him up so he's not dwelling on the next day. It will be fun between the girls, the food, the dogs (and cat) and the movie, Don won't be able to think, much less dwell on anything.
