Day 27 Proton Therapy

Dale got an early call again today and went in at 11:15 for treatment.
He's coughed a bit more today, it's not productive but does cause his face to flush. His appetite is still good, he split a chicken fried steak with mom tonight for dinner. Slept well last night, didn't take any Xyloxilyn. Maybe a little fatigued looking in the eyes, but is still moving around normally.

Ever time I check these reports I am more encouraged. How many more are planned?

10 more treatments! Dad will finish on May 13th! He is doing remarkably well. Far better than the doctors expected. They are ready to get back to Victoria. I've really enjoyed having them here for the seven weeks, but they do love being at "home"! They've been going home almost every weekend - and I know they really enjoy that break! Dad will have a followup CT scan in June and that will determine the effectiveness of the treatments! Fingers crossed that the tumor is gone!
