Update on Ben's Chemo

Ben's second chemo appointment went very well. Luckily he didn't have any physical reaction afterward, like the first time.

The biggest issue now seems to be keeping his strength. His doctors recommended physical therapy to help him there.

Ben has a tingling in his feet that makes walking difficult. This was also discussed at his last appointment since the doctor does not feel that this is related to the chemo or to the cancer he was referred to a neurologist who will be keeping an eye on it for the next couple of weeks. If, within that time, it has not improved they will run more tests. Please be in prayer.

Kari and Ben have received so much love and support through this blog and our facebook group. It is truly amazing and so appreciated!!
