Marti had her tough date yesterday (both radiation and chemo) and came through it very well, with major assistance from Kathleen. She also saw Dr Hess this week and she is now off of almost all of her BP medicine. she was on 3 different BP pills and now she is only on half of one of them.
She has some skin burning in the right axilla and the central chest, which is not unexpected--We have started topical skin creams which help.
She having her last "regular" radition treatment today. Next week she gets 5 more radiation treatments to much smaller, focused-down areas, called a "boost", and then she will be done with radiation, but she will continue weekly chemo.
Sara and Nick are coming for the weekend, while Kathleen goes to visit her friends in Frostburg-obviously we are very happy to be seeing our prodigal kids.
Best regards to all our friends and relatives, and thanks for all the support.
Love
Bob S.
