No Treatment
6/14/2010Kurt's "raw" throat is due to thrush, a yeast infection in his throat. Dry mouth, chemotherapy, and radiation can affect the immune system and lead to an increased risk of developing thrush. So they didn't do radiation today or tomorrow and he goes back on Wednesday to be re-evaluated to see if he can start back up treatments. He's disappointed, because he wants to push through and get it done, but dr. said it's better to take a small break now than a large break later. He also saw chemo dr. who said his white blood cell count back up, which is good news, and they have him scheduled for his last chemo treatment on June 28th.

I don’t think I have told you lately, but both of you are amazing! I’m not sure how you do it, but I’m sure it is more then I could handle. Keep plugging away, I know you both can do this! If you need anything just call.
Thinking and praying for you:
Jason & Shanna.
