What a difference a day makes

Hi everyone,
I just want to drop a quick note to let you know that today was a much different day! The nausea and pain were way down and pretty manageable with medication. I am developing some sores in my mouth which is yet another side effect of Erbitux (the drug we are discontinuing)

I believe that a large part of my chances to beat this have to do with attitude and not giving in to the cancer. Yesterday I will tell you that the cancer was winning, today it is not! I am hopeful that this will continue so that I can get through my 11 remaining sessions without giving in to this disease.

I also believe that faith and prayer play a big part in beating this and I want you all to know that I appreciate your prayers and positive thoughts. Please keep both of us in your prayers because we need them!!

There is a song I heard during my last experience with this called "Calling All Angels" and I just want all of you to know that YOU are our Angels and we are calling on you :)

Love and Peace to all our Angels
John and Carol
