Barbara got up and after breakfast we drove to Dallas for an appointment with the oncologist

He said that the medicine was working to stop the head shakes. But one of them might be causing her to be really sleepy all the time. So he suggested that we reduce taking one of the pills. Barbara has no use of her left side and the right side is getting weaker.

The goal was to have 6 months of chemo and we now have 7 months. The goal was to have 4 avastin treatments and barbara had 6 treatments. The doctor said Barbara was not a candidate for any of the clinical trials because of her weakened state

The doctor will contact dr Parikh and I am to call dr Parikh on Tuesday. They don't want to do anything that will cause barbara to lose more use of her right side. All of the medicine needs to work together.

Thanks for all the prayers
