Update as of Thursday, August 26^th….. I met with my radiation oncologist today, to discuss my radiation treatment. They made a plastic cast of my face that will be used during the procedure to lock my head in place so they can use concentrated beams of radiation to target the area where the tumor was before the surgery. They, the oncologist and his assistant, are big fans of Dr Freidman’s at Duke University, and my doctor, Dr Cline actually knows him on a first name basis. They reinforced that we were making a good decision in seeking his expertise. God keeps putting people in my path to make this journey easier. My faith grows stronger and stronger every day. I have 34 treatments to go through (5 days a week, every day for almost 7 full weeks), I will probably lose a little hair in about 5-7 spots around my head from the concentrated beams of radiation, but it is worth it. They are very confident that this is going to give me my life back, with very little nausea or weakness.
