Our Six Week Adventure Begins

Tuesday Evening in Lincoln City

Dale and I are spending a few quiet days at our place on the Lake in Lincoln City.  Tomorrow we head back to Portland to get ready to begin (on Thursday) the six weeks of radiation/chemo combination.  

The chemo, called temozolomide (temodar) is in a pill form taken 1 hour before the targeted radiation treatment each day (Monday - Friday).  The doctors and others we know who have had this course of treatment tell us it is well tolerated by most patients, with few side-effects.  We are praying for that.

Please keep those prayers and positive thoughts coming Dale's way.  His spirits are good and so is his appetite.

Here is the link to a Dale 411 Blog  created for us by dear Debra Thomas.  All of our emails since we started are posted there.  On the right hand side you will find links to click to sign up to provide support by dropping meals by or coming by to hang out with Dale at various times.  

Thanks for all of your continued support and love.
