Michael & his doctor decided that he should take this week and next week off from chemo. His tumor markers are down to 296 which is good. The scary news is that his bilirubin is up to 4. That's higher than it's ever been. The highest it was when we started was 2.8. The doctor thinks that the tumor in his liver is getting bigger. Michael is glad he's taking a break from chemo but it worries me that his bilirubin is so high. I'm going to make an appointment with another doctor to see if anyone has any other ideas.

Gerryl I check your blog daily and sometimes hourly. Please know that you are both in our thoughts and prayers. You know, sometimes being off the darn chemo could be a GOOD THING! Each doctor has their own way of doing things and suggesting the next step. Sometimes you have to go with the gut feeling.
