Marcel will start his treatment soon!

everyones prayers have done something special..
Marcel will begin the SGN-35 treatment on April 26th. i've been really nervouse about saying anything online...i've been avoiding blogger because i dont want to jinx anything. 
i just really hope this happens...because my husband scan showed relapse in January...and he hasnt got any treatment yet.
things are getting pretty bad at home....i havent had a good night sleep in over a month. Marcels hodgkins is progressing really fast (months of not having any treatment will do that)....he is up all night itching, coughing, sweating...adn hes even been talking in his sleep so much latley. sometimes in the middle of the night he will just start talking to me, asking me questions. i will agree with anything he says, and once he woke up as we were talking and got mad at me for lying to him ..he asked me where we were gonna go...so i told him to san francisco.  he sat up and asked, why i was playing with his head while he was sleeping?  i tried to explain to him that i didnt want to wake him...so i just go with whatever he says...

i trully believe everyones prayers have trully been a blessing...because i'm honestly not sure how much longer Marcel can hold on without treatment. he's been asking me latley if he's dying. and i dont know what to say...so i tell him "every day  everyones closer to death" ...i'm horriable with words in tough situations.

so his first appointment will be on April 21st to get his schedule for the SGN-35 ....i hope everything goes fine.

just one more thing...through all of this...Marcel has still been going to work everyday. he refuses to quit his job...he comes home exhausted, but he says its better than doing nothing.

inshallah his treatment will work for him and he will recover soon .

my prayers are always with you and him dear.

And you need to take care of yourself , it's tough taking all this responsibilty beside the anxiety and the fear. But it will all go away soon :)

send my regard to Marcel and tell him that he is giving me a lesson for how to be strong and keep going. My prayers are for your Marcel and your family :)

I really feel for you although I do not pity you because you have shown just how strong and an amazing wife you are! My father has lung cancer and I know the agony and I truly hope that God watches over your husband and makes this miracle for both him and you, who stands courageously and lovingly by his side. Be blessed and I will be keeping you in my prayers. Stay strong please..
