Eight treatments to go!

Mary has five treatments next week and the final three the week after that! That feels like the light at the end of the tunnel--and we know its not a train! Mary is feeling very tired of the effect of the radiation but fortunately, the other typical side effects have not materialized and for that we are thankful.

We are both looking forward to Mary's four week break between radiation+chemo and the start of chemo the sequel. We are hoping Mary can gain a bunch of strength during that interlude. Without the radiation and chemo knocking her down daily, we hope she'll be in great shape.

With my employer shutdown this coming week, we'll have a lot of time together and we hope to get a lot of errands done. Vet visits for the dogs, service on some of the gear in the house--plumbing and what not. In other words, a pretty thorough "honeydo" kind of week!
