The month of September is now drawing to a close and the news is not getting any better. It seems that with this damn disease the news is rarely good. Elaine continues to get new spots and our radiation oncologist described it a rampant. We are however still moderately positive and are taking it all day by day doing every thing that we can to try to defeat it. Late last week our medical oncologist offered chemo and made sure that we were aware of the rather unpleasant side effects. So we have had discussions with our  GP who in turn had a long chat with the medical oncologist. The net result is that we are still undecided although it appears that chemo will not extend her survival by a long enough period to justify the discomfort that it will cause,,....bummer. But we will soldier on and try to enjoy what time we have got and to see as much as possible of our children and grandchildren.
