Popular Post groupw Posted August 14, 2017 Popular Post Share #1 Posted August 14, 2017 It has been 4 weeks since my last trip down to help EDoW get to her cancer treatments, run errands, help around the house, etc. the difference in her demeanor was night and day. While she still gets tired easily, her color is back and she is doing more about the house and looks forward to getting out of the house now! We all went out for dinner Thursday night. That was her first evening out in about 6-8 weeks. This was her first week of internal radiation. Which for cervical is just what you don't want to imagine. Imagine getting a sunburn inside! The good news is the main tumor is shrinking quite nicely. The lymph nodes are still needing a boost so they will add some targeted external radiation on them. This week, the nurses complimented her on her composure. There is another patient having the same treatment, about the same age. She is not dealing with it so well. They asked EDoW if they could give the other woman her number to be a strong shoulder. She has a blog of her journey at caringbridge.org. PM me and I will give her name there if you would like to read it. Entertaining but totally unfiltered! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur ★ Posted August 14, 2017 Share #2 Posted August 14, 2017 I am very glad she is responding well and remaining composed. This may change from time to time as she battles the disease but things are seemingly going well. Continued blessings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
