The Cancer is Growing

We saw the Doc on Monday and the cancer is growing again. That is why he is having so much pain and discomfort.
So what is the plan? He will start immunology on Friday. This is the new drug that was recently approved by the FDA. This drug helps the body to recognize the cancer cells as foreign cells so that the body will kill them on its own. It is the next and most promising thing available in cancer treatment. The doctor said it is the new wave of cancer treatment and will become the preferred treatment for cancer in the future. This type of drug is why the cancer specialists are starting to talk about a cure for cancer. When we asked him about the side effects of this drug he said that on the trials there were so few side effects that most people thought they were getting the placebo. That being said it is kicking in the immune system and you know what happens when your body does that. We are expecting a good result and no side effects, however. The drug is administered by infusion once ever other week:)
Bruce's airways are once again being strangled by the cancer so they are going to do a surgery tomorrow to insert a stint into his bronchia to open up the airway so that he can breathe better as it will take a couple of months for this drug to work. They are hopefully doing the stint tomorrow morning. We would appreciate your prayers specifically for an easy and effective surgery and that the new drug will work the way it is supposed to so that Bruce can have more time with us. We love and appreciate you all. We are especially grateful to the Lord for his hand and for the knowledge we have specifically as to our purpose here on the earth and the plan of salvation.
