Day two DONE! August 27

It was off to Emory this morning, to the Winship for radiation.  A 90 minute drive followed by 10 minutes of treatment - so she's now down to 28 radiation treatments and 40 chemotherapy doses!!  Progress, progress!!

We then went out for a nice lunch and ate WAY too much chips and salsa and guacamole so we split an entree for lunch.  Then we waddled out to the car (well someone did and it wasn't Beverly!).  Then it was off to Costco and then home for naptime!

Today she's been more confused than yesterday, and it is really frustrating her because she knows she's confused.  We just keep talking through things and she seems reassured.  She was really much better after lunch and our little outing - more confident in things.  The nurse we talked to today indicated that this is to be expected - up and down days.

We see our favorite physician tomorrow so we'll see what he thinks about all this as well.  Her spirit is good, and her attitude is really positive - she's just annoyed that she's confused.

More tomorrow!

  2. Beverly it sounds like you are making progress and have some wonderful people with you. I would love to visit but I don't want to be a pest so let me know if you would like some company or if there is anything I can get for you I am only 10 minutes away. Stay strong and my prayers are with you and your family. Hugs and kisses.
