The 3rd treatment and the Chinese Mushroom.

Done with the third treatment, he is still hanging on. But seem like his body is getting weaker. The Chemo drug seem to show it on his skin surface. I can see some color change on his skin, the good cell start getting affected. He's trying to eat and drink nutrition milk regularly with high protein, flaxseed fruit & Vegetable smoothie, but his appetite and the taste of chemical in his mouth really make him difficult to eat. On the top of nausea and vomiting already gave him all the discomfort. His weight is keep going down, 25 lbs since the beginning of the diagnosis. He need to maintain his weight and not letting it loss any further. This is pretty urgent that we really need to stop that to happen any further. It will only make him less tolerant to the drug and weakening the immune system. Instead of taking 3 days to recover his body, this time, its take 4 days. Hints he is weakening. He did make some progress to overcome the discomfort to force himself to eat. We split the meals into a small portion at a time with more snack time in between. It's a big step for him. We went back to his family doctor for a follow up visit. So thankful for her to refer us to such an amazing oncology team to take care of him. As she said she know it's serious diagnosis but the best she can do is to refer us to the best doctors and health care team she knows. She can't hold on to her emotions during the conversation and give us a big big hug before we leave. Attending the holistic consultation and Nutrition session have benefit a lot for both of us. We learn trick that can help make him maintain his calories and eliminate the metal taste in his mouth etc. The holistic doctor session allow me to find out more about the "Coriolus Versicolor" common Chinese name Yun Zhi. Amazing that there is some research studies done in US which I can found information through Cancer.org website. She direct me to go to the reliable factory web site in US to find those products. It's been used and well known in Asia for many years that can Prolong survival rate and lower the risk of re-occurrence. I am glad I find some doctors in US to support this idea. All we can do right now is to eat as nutritional as he can to prepare for another round of treatment.
