Another sleepless night. So many issues right now. The good news is that there is still no cancer after 15 months! And only 3 more rounds of chemo to go. The bad news is my kidneys and all that go with that are getting worse. I have no appetite or energy at all. It takes days to build up the energy level to do anything then days to recover. We have a meeting Thursday morning with the surgeon. They are trying to rush a surgery to get the PD port put in so I can start dialysis and hopefully feel better soon! Will keep you posted! ~ Mike
