Dancin' the Irish Jig!

May your blessings outnumber
The shamrocks that grow,
And may trouble avoid you
Wherever you go.
~Irish Blessing


I waited until today to do the weekly doctor update, not just because I'm Irish and like St. Patrick's Day but because today marks the HALF WAY MARK! David is officially 1/2 the way to completing the radiation treatments! 
Dr. Butler was out of the office Tuesday so we saw Dr. Grant. We had been told they might "add" sessions to the end of the treatment plan. I ask when they would make that decision, I was told by Dr. Grant that he thought Dr. Butler had already decided NO ADDITIONAL SESSIONS! (Needs to be confirmed next Tuesday with Butler)
The fatigue is about the same, David takes a nap everyday and can function okay. No pain, no other issues, no weight gain or loss. 
Spring Break was this week and we got to see kids and grandkids. We took Addy to the Woodlands to listen to music, and had a 1st Birthday party for Sophie. Billy went to treatment with David on Monday...regular stuff. Felt very good!
No blood work this week, but he will have a white cell count test next week.
Thanks again for all the cards, calls and prayers. Love you all.
