Just chuggin' along. Mary undergoes another session of chemo next Thursday. We feel and we hope that we are slightly better prepared with two sessions behind us. Moreover, Mary video conferenced with her oncologist last week and they agreed on another strategy to address potential nausea associated with her falling over post-chemo last time around. 

Here’s hopin’ this new strategy will improve Mary's pace of healing.

Her oncologist also confirmed with Mary that, as of now we’re expecting two more chemo sessions. That is, she’s half way through this round of chemo. After the fourth and last session mid-November Mary will undergo another scan – likely a CT scan – to evaluate the chemo’s effects and create a baseline to evaluate future resurgences of growth of mesothelioma malignancies.
