That's one BIG accelerator!!!

Thanks for checking up on us. Liz completed her radiation treatments today and will begin chemo next week. We meet the the Oncologist Monday morning and she has a treatment that afternoon. The radiologist said that he will rescan her brain in a few weeks to check on the progress the radiation treatments made on the cancer there and schedule additional treatments if they are needed. He wants any swelling to subside and does not want her going through initial chemo and radiation at the same time. That's about where we stand now. Will give an update next week as new info becomes available.

Thanks again for caring!!!

I have been thinking about you too...we all are. How is Liz feeling and is she eating well? Important. Trying to keep weight on during these treatments can be tough ( I am an example) so aside from the "correct" diet give her that which her mouth may water for.....me? macaroni and cheese my go to longed for food. We will wait to hear from you next week.

Always, Bob.

Hoping that you are both doing ok, good to hear from you. If you are comfortable sharing, let us know if the oncologist has any news on Monday regarding the biomarker testing. Take care.
