Journal entry by Katie Miles —
Jeremy is doing much better, good thing since it’s Father’s Day today!
2 weeks ago he had his wound cleaned up and closed and a chemo port put in. He also had a drain put in for all the access fliud (it was kinda gross lol). Last week - Monday - they were able to take the drain out. They did a chest X-ray because he was having a hard time breathing. They found one of his lungs was starting to collapse and put him on some strong antibiotics since they thought it was the start of pneumonia. He goes back to the doc tomorrow morning to get his staples removed from his stomach and to find out if his lungs are healthy enough to start his chemo treatments. He also sees the oncologist tomorrow, in hopes he can start treatments.
The tough road for Jeremy is yet to come. The continued support from friends and family is amazing and is what is keeping Jeremy’s spirits up. Thank you ❤️❤️
