Visited with Oncologist this morning. Buel has lost another 2 lbs. Down to 133 lbs. He told us today that the "final" report from the scans last time is that the tumors are not shrinking and are not growing. However, he said that he had to find another drug to go along with what he is giving him because with the drug not shrinking the tumors, that he is basically just keeping him alive. He said that when the Erbitux quit working then there was "danger" so he has to find another drug to work with this one. Problem is he has taken almost all the drugs there is to take and they have not stopped his tumors. They have continued to grow with all the medicine. He said there are a few more new ones on the market and he has to do research on them for colorectal cancer patients. Then we visited with the Gastro... Dr. and the lab work shows no bacteria to be causing the diarreha. So, no luck there. Our next trip here will be on June 8th for more chemo. He has an appt with a hernia dr. tomorrow at 10 and then we are heading back home. Please say a prayer for us. We desperately need it at this point. Thanks, Tommie
