Both appointments went well today. I have a plan to help combat possible side effects for the course of treatment we are leaning towards. Still have to make that final decision after the biopsy results though.
I ran into my oncologist in the hospital today while visiting someone from church. 🙂 Got to chat with him for a few minutes. Once we have the biopsy results, we’ll let him know which course of treatment we want to go with and then he’ll get it ordered. He says it takes about 2 weeks to get insurance approval and to get it shipped to me, but that we wouldn’t start it during radiation anyways. So that works out well.
Radiation “practice” went fine. Radiation will be at 11 am for the next 10 weekdays (Wed. October 22nd – Tuesday Nov,. 5th). It should be quick, with a 30 minute drive on each side of it. I’m trying to clear my schedule as much as possible for those 2 weeks…but we have 3 kids. (Insert laughing emoji here.)
Please pray that we will get the biopsy results soon so we can finalize a treatment plan. And please pray for strength for me during the next couple weeks as I head up to Valley for radiation. It’s very nice to walk in and see familiar faces (and a familiar machine). I’m thankful for that. It makes it much easier. 🙂
We will be thinking about you and praying for you .
Praying for you. Love Aunt Carol
Let me know if I can help with rides or errands or anything.
We would usually go to Disneyland after Alpha had a radiation treatment. We had to go to Hollywood and in good traffic it was only about 30 minutes down to Disneyland. Plan something fun after a treatment, it helps. One lady had two little kids, preschool which came with her every time. Those waiting in the waiting room took care of them when she was in for her treatment. On her last day they had a party and gave the kids a large type of educational toy that they could play with. There were lots of wheels and things to turn. It was amazing how all the patients and families related to each other. May you have good things happen to you as you go through this. I continue to pray for you and your family.
Praying for you Jen!
