At 2:30 today I disconnected the pump and removed Tim’s needle for the last time for a while. Tomorrow he begins the time necessary to recuperate before the surgery to resect his liver. Even though, these last few rounds were rough, he handled what was considered the worst cocktail of chemo for colorectal cancer with relative ease. Both Dr. Nelson and Dr. Chun were shocked that he continued to work and maintain as normal a life as he did.
We are so very thankful for the care he’s received thus far and are anxiously preparing for what’s next. Tim has several appointments January 3-5 to prepare for surgery and to consult with the rectal surgeon to make plans for after the liver surgery. With that being said, surgery to remove about 60% of his liver has been scheduled for Friday, February 2.
Until then, we are looking forward to spending Christmas without cancer dictating our time.
