nothing too exciting...

on friday tim and i had a CONSULT with a radiation oncologist. we talked for a bit and they sent tim off for a CT SCAN and we decided that it would "probably" make sense to soon start to radiate his (new) tumor that they think is causing him grief in his left arm. he had all his "markings" done and they will call us later this week to discuss "the plan". they are planning to put him on a plan that will hopefully shrink the tumor to the point where it stop causing the arm issues (numbness, achey, loss of strength, ect...)

turned out from the CT scan that the 2-3 inch tumor we thought we had was a bit bigger than anyone expected. we will know more specifics after the PET SCAN on the 15th. hopefully the radiation will be able to slow it down and shrink it a bit.

on saturday tim and i took off for a 36 hour get-a-way (without the kids). it was nice...tim got to golf in the morning and then we headed to harveys lake for grotto's pizza and then back to berwick to visit with some family. we really had a great time and it was nice to get a way for a day.

we will keep you all posted on tims radiation final decision and any other issues that may arise.

thanks for checking in

tim and tammy
