While the pills are more convenient, this treatment is definitely not a walk in the park. Bill spent the wee morning hours (1am - 4am) very sick. He selflessly went downstairs, so I never even knew he was sick. The coughing has been really prominent lately and the second he lies down it comes on full force. He is going to have to sleep propped up, so I will venture out to buy a recliner for our bedroom tomorrow after work.
Bill spent most of the day in bed sleeping. The pills have brought on fatigue to the nth degree. I can't help but pray that it means they are at work on the intruders. He is forced to eat with one of the medications, which is actually a godsend since he would choose to skip food altogether. I hope his body "adapts" to the forces of the medicine so he won't be sick everyday. He takes one of the pills three times a day (each day), and the other one twice a day (for 3 of the 4 weeks), so there is not a break period, or a "good" week, so to speak. Hopefully they all become good weeks!

MY PREYERS OUR WITH YOU ALL----STAY STRONG BILL
ALL MY LOVE
Jackie and Bill,
The road you are on is certainly rough and filled with potholes. We pray that just ahead the road will, once again, be smooth and beautiful.
Susan and Kevin
Jackie,
Please tell Billy that Mike and I are praying that he finds some relief in the coming days. God bless his heart for always thinking of others by leaving the room. Our hearts go out to you all.
My thoughts and prayers are with Bill. I just saw the news on the Bishop Amat Alumni website. I was a classmate of Bill's in High School and sat in front of him in homeroom for four years.
God Bless you and the family at this time and stay strong!!!!
