Week of February 24th

This was a week of doctor appointments for Nancy; the radiologist on Tuesday, eye doctor on Wednesday and family doctor on Thursday.

Our meeting with the radiologist oncologist went well; Nancy really likes her. The doctor spent over an hour and a half with us outlining the game plan for her radiology treatments after the surgery. She described all of the procedures and length of treatments. The plan is five weeks, five days per week.

The eye doctor went well; her eye pressures are in good shape. Her blurry vision will likely continue until she can start back on her medication. Depending on the doctor's decision, she may have to wait until after radiation; roughly two months from now. The frustration is she cannot see well and therefore not drive.

There is a chance the doctor (radiologist) will allow the medication to be taken while radiation is given. If so she could start the medication shortly after the surgery. We won't know until after the surgery.
On the weekend several of our family went on a road trip to Napoleon to visit our son and his family. It was good for Nancy to get out and it was fun to visit with them. The grandchildren are growing fast and learning new things every day.

The big day is this Thursday; her surgery. This is phase two and Nancy is anxious to get it done. If they could have done it last week that would have been fine.

So, please keep the prayers coming as the Good Lord is listening. All is going well and according to plan.

 Thanks for all the kindness.

Bob
