Been awhile since the last update…Visited Paul last night, and he is back to his usual jovial self. Seems to me the recovery seems to be going on well. From what i can gather, he is eating well.
Its been some 3 weeks since he started his chemo treatment. The medication makes him feel tired most of the time, and he seems to be having problem sleeping , perhaps these are some signs of side effects of the treatment.
When i meet him last night, he was was wearing a cap. The effect of the treaments is causing his hair to drop off. Not exactly bald ..but almost there. This is expected as the doctor already informed him of the side effects.
According to Paul, has had a booster jab, to boost his white-blood cell count. This is to prepare him for the 2nd cycle of chemo.
This coming Friday, before the start of the 2nd cycle treament, a full blood test will be conducted to check on his blood counts, cancer markers and etc. This to check on the progress of his treatment.
Do continue to pray for Paul ..
- to be strong and trust the loard as he goes through the treament.
- that the result of the blood test would be favourable, which is an indication of recovery
- his family for this testing time ..and our lord will bless all with peace .
Cheers ..
