So I went to Dr. Funk yesterday and told her all that had been going on with Larry. And that between what was going on with mom and him and the sister and the son, I just couldn't cope. I don't understand the whole weaning myself off Wellbutrin in the first place, unless He thought I'd need something different from now on. For certain, I won't be able to afford the Brand name anymore. So we've gone with generic at a lower dose with a side of lorazapan thrown in. Last night I took one of those and was out like a light. Awoke feeling refreshed and clear headed, so I guess it's gonna be a friend.
Got the Nexavar yesterday and Larry took the first dose last night. The side effects sound devastating. Perhaps he won't have all of them. This medicine will not kill the cancer or be a cure in anyway, only serving to slow the growth and perhaps keep him going until there can be a transplant.
I also need to remember to start a list of the meds I'm taking now to keep with me -
Dr. Funk also said she had nothing from Mercy Medical center concerning Larry at all. Pretty sure we asked for his records to be sent more than once. Today I will fax their #'s to her and maybe she can get a response. From here on out, any tests that need to be done, I'd like to have done here. I'd also like for her to be able to keep closer watch on both of us.
So this morning I'm feeling pretty normal - pretty in control. Even I know that's an illusion. There can only be One in control and I'm pretty sure I'm not the one. Regardless, I'll read a little more Bible, carry a Godly thought back to bed with me and when I waken again, I'll start with the little mindless chores that are my life, thankful that there are chores and things needing my attention that have nothing to do with sorrow and loss. God is good - All the time.
