CMM is getting his new CT/PET scans right now - we will see what kind of progress (or not) he has made since last fall. He has had a more productive cough lately - not much, but he had been pretty much free of the morning cough for some time - and I suspect the news may not be great, but we will see. If he's not responding to his current treatment, I don't know what they will advise. There's not much left to try, I imagine they would recommend some slight change that's not really of any significance. There still aren't any experimental trials available for his particular type of KRAS mutation. Unless it's really surprisingly bad, in which case they might not recommend anything at all (but I don't think he's to that point yet). I do need to have him bring up the notion of assisted suicide with his doctor next visit - not that he's anywhere near that yet, but if he doesn't make his wishes known now while he's mentally competent (it is now legal in our state) I'm not sure he would have any options available if, for instance, he developed a brain metastasis or a stroke. Plus I understand it's quite a process just to get the prescriptions. (Actually I'm not even sure if he makes his wishes known but then has a stroke or other mentally incapacitating event that he can go through with it - I'll have to read the new law more carefully. I know that he has said he doesn't want to suffer at the end and would prefer to have control over that.)
