Utah Bob #35998 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Carol is starting a new cancer med today. The previous one just had too many really bad side effects for her to tolerate so she’s been off it for about 3 weeks. Hoping this one will be better.
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Thoughts going out to you and your beloved, UB.
Eyesa Horg Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Prayers still up for you Bob and Carol. Hoping things improve.
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Prayers for Carol heading her way from this survivor on the Northern side of the Medicine Line.
Tex Jones, SASS 2263 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Hopefully the new med will be easier to tolerate. All the best.
Sixgun Seamus Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Having several friends who beat this, here's hopes and prayers that Carol can beat it as well.

Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Cancer meds are funny animals. Meds that work on one person don't do squat for the next. One person has no side effects while another becomes violently ill. I trust it will get better.

She had zero side effects on the two immunotherapy drugs for 10 months. Then had to switch when they stopped working. Now it’s one thing after another.
Subdeacon Joe Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 O Lord Jesus Christ our God, Who did patiently endure the scourging and wounding of Your most holy Body, that You might save the souls and bodies of Your people, look graciously, we beseech You, upon the suffering body of this Your servant and give her strength to endure patiently whatsoever You shall see fit to lay upon her. Bless the means employed for the working out of her cure, granting that she may so endure her sufferings in the flesh that the wounding of her body may be to avail for the correcting and salvation of her soul, for Yours it is to show mercy and to save, O Christ our God; and to You do we send up Glory, as to Your Eternal Father and Your All‑Holy, Good and Life‑creating Spirit, both now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen. Almighty Lord, Physician of souls and bodies, You humble and lift up, You reprimand and heal, visit Your servant with Your mercy for she is suffering. Stretch forth Your arm which is so full of healing and health, and cure her, raising her from her bed and pain. Reprove the spirit of weakness which is in her and drive far from her pain, wounds, chills, fever and weakness. If she has sins or transgressions, loosen, remit and forgive them in Your love for mankind. O Lord, have compassion on Your creation, in Christ Jesus our Lord, with whom You are blessed, together with Your all holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Clay Mosby Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Lost my Dad to C, Lin and I are praying for Carol, You and your family for healing and strength.
Trigger Mike Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Sorry she is having such a hard time. I got the impression when my wife had cancer that the Dr was throwing darts at a board when deciding treatment. Praying that things get better real soon.

Like Okie said, you just can’t tell how each individual is going to respond to a particular medication. So far, we’ve been to the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, the Levine Cancer institute in NC, and San Juan Oncology in Farmington NM.
Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Pulling for you both ,UB. The Big C can be diabolical. I've lost my FIL and my shooting partner to it.
