radiation

Nicole and I visited the radiologist last week to learn more about my treatment path.  We will continue with chemo for a few more treatments (an unknown amount at this time) and then follow with radiation.  The radiation treatment will be M-F for appx. 5 weeks.  The treatment itself is less than 5 minutes but will require me to drive to their office at I-435 & Holmes everyday.  With the construction at Metcalf is should be an interesting drive each day.

After radiation I will have a 4 week break with no treatments before I have surgery to remove the area of my colon that is/was affected.  I am guessing that this will be late Feb/early Mar but am just guessing.  I should know more tomorrow after my 11th chemo treatment.

Carter just had his 6 month b-day this past Satuday which included new pictures.  Note to self; don't go to the picture studio on a Saturday @ 1:20pm - total chaos!!  Mom and Carter are both doing great and Carter continues to grow & grow.

Cheers,
