Second Cycle of chemo

Troy started his second cycle of Chemo yesterday. You do two weeks and then have one week off. He will do a total of 4 cycles and should be done in early January. The chemo is miserable for him. The Mayo clinic called two days ago to give us his tentative schedule for his stem cell transplant. It looks like he will be going back to Minnesota January 19th. He begged the doctor to let him stop the current treatment, but the doctor won. He gained close to 26 pounds becuase of the steroids and it is all water weight. His kidney specialist increased his diuertics. He is very tired and just wants our lives to be back to normal.
