Day four is over and done. No adverse effects except sleeping. I guess the atavan is working. One more day and home for two weeks. Deanna is coming tomorrow for the weekend. Then it will be one week down and eight to go.

Ronny has done extremely well this week.

His appetite has been virtually unaffected by the chemotherapy medications. The reglan, zofran and ativan has kept his nausea and anxiety at bay. He has been able to eat and get plenty of sleep. This has allowed his mind and body to stay strong and positive throught this first week of chemo.

His support system is so strong. Mom and Dad have been at his side every step of the way. They visit for hours every single day! Deanna has been wonderful and so loving and supportive.

I want to thank the staff of the M50 Nursing Unit for the wonderful care they have provided. This Nursing Unit is number one in Patient Satifaction at The Cleveland Clinic year after year.

Please know that Ronny is in very goods hands. He has God,his family, his friends and the Cleveland Clinic on his fantasy team!! Jon

Ron:

I told you that drugs are good! I am glad that the reglan/zofran/ativan cocktail is keeping the side effects under control. We are thinking of you often. Take care.

P.S. Brandon is looking forward to a rematch in boxing and wrestling.

Hey Ron, Cliff just told me about your cancer and treatment. Man, I'm feeling for you. I've read all of Armstrong's books so I have a fairly good description of the agony of this process. Crap, I'm so sorry. But, you are one strong individual and you can kick this just like you do the golf ball!

Haven't seen you in a few years, but have great memories of the guy's weekend in Palm Springs. I'll be thinking of you and getting updates from Cliffy. Be the strong man I know you are, with an amazing heart and an unstoppable will.

Your buddy,

Bob Thordarson
