tuesday 7/1/09

happy almost birthday to our nation!

it's been a rough week personally, but mom's week has been ok.

we went to the radiation consult yesterday-- 3 hours! yikes!! we learned about everything and mom is ready to get started. sure thought there'd be some depression but she's good as gold!

she gets fitted for what they call a mask next monday. they will use this mask to hold her head in place while she gets burned..... it's horrible to refer to it that way, but that's what it is! we'll get her rad schedule planned then she'll start.

we learned yesterday that because the hospital will practically be a home base for us the next couple of months that they "treat" us to free valet parking or free garage parking. incredible how such a small thing made us so happy! that money adds up!

s'all for now. happy 4th, everyone!

I'm glad to hear that mom has a positive attitude. I know this will be rough on both of you but attitude is a big part of recovery.
