:wave: Hi, My mom had round 3 of the Alimta this week and is doing well, probably will start feeling fatigued tomorrow but she plans to watch football all day so is planning to take it easy. While I was at her house I came across a book I got for her 14 months ago when we began this journey. It is called Surviving Cancer and is written by Margie Levine. It is worth taking a look at as Margie had Mesothelioma of the lung ( the cancer associated with asbestos). She got it back at a time when surviving it was unheard of yet 12 years later was still alive to write her book. She has chapters on all the things she tried that are not part of conventional medicine but can be used with it. Yes it is a different type of cancer then most of us are dealing with but it is aggressive and very deadly yet she seems to have beat it or at least has put it on hold for a long time. She never gave up living nor the belief that she would not die. My prayer is that people on this board can find the miracle she seems to have found. Best wishes to all of you and your loved ones for a nice relaxing weekend. JanMarie
