He's feeling pretty rotten today, worse than he has in a while. I don't know how he will cope with more chemo tomorrow and the next day. It's been amazing how well his body has dealt with all of the terrible (but helpful!) medicines all year and it seems like it is all finally taking it's toll. His mouth is so sore (he says it feels completely raw) and he can only eat ice cream and icy-poles.

He has spent the day sleeping or lying on the couch and is just calling the doctor at Peter Mac to see if he thinks they should give his body a bit of a break. It's horrible seeing him feeling so sad and sick. He looks so much like he has cancer today.

He just spoke to the doctor who told him to still go up to the hospital for treatment tomorrow and they will review it all but will probably go ahead because it is most likely just his body wearing out.

Simon is sore in his left rib/lung area and the doctor said the worst thing it would be is a blood clot, which scared me but they don't seem panicked and I guess they will check it out tomorrow. I can't wait until it's all over and I'm so glad that God is in control of it all.
