Count down! 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 to go!
I have looked forward to this week for several months. Now that it is here, what keeps me going are the prayers of family and friends. It is hard to describe the feeling I have because the treatments do not hurt, but there is […]

This was a weekend to relax. After two treatments Friday, I think I was extra tired and I had much more difficulty sleeping Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night. But, that’s OK; the doctor said Thursday that this would rectify itself in three to four weeks after the treatment is complete. So, I will look forward […]

God is good!
I don’t know why I say that. Maybe it is to affim it in my own mind. Certainly I need that truth affirmed. I say I believe it, but at times I find myself acting in disbelief!
Kay and I just finished a book Your God is Too Safe by Mark Buchanan and published […]

This should be day 38! I went in for a treatment yesterday morning and the x-ray machine in Gantry 3 was down. That meant that they could not check the allignment of the patient so they couldn’t do proton treatments. Since Thomas, Austin, and Jackson were here, we had reservations at 10:00 AM on the […]

After today’s treatment I am in “single digits!” Only nine more treatments to go!
Kay and I left for Oklahoma City last Friday at 11:45 AM. We arrived tired but without any problems at 6:00 PM.
Friday evening we had “catch up” things to do at the house. Saturday we arrived at Frontier City for the Annual […]

Day 34! Only ten treatments left. When this started, I thought nine weeks in California would be just shy of eternity! But, the time has absolutely flown by. You would think that when all you have to do is get a proton treatment weekdays at 6:45 AM, you would have lots of time on your […]

Three weeks left! If I were in Marine Boot Camp at San Diego (as I was in 1961), we would be allowed to “blouse” our dungaree trouser legs at the top of our boots! That is the ultimate sign that you are in the last few weeks of boot camp! Everyone then knows that you […]

I cannot believe that I received my 28th treatment this morning! And, I can hardly believe that I have not blogged since Day 25! This has been an incredible week! We have had a LOT of fun!
David, David, Jr., and Lauren arrived last Monday at 1 PM. We enjoyed each others company Monday evening and […]

I cannot believe how the time has flown by! We have now completed 24 treatments and have only 20 left! The Lord is good!
For anyone that has ever been in the military, I am now a “short timer!” Less than a month to go. If I were in the service, I would have a calendar […]

Yippee! I am over the hill! I received treatment number 23 today! Only 21 to go! also saw the doctor today and he confirmed that I would finish up on July 1st. Assuming that the synchrotron doesn’t go down! But that is in the Lord’s hands!
I have no significant side effects from the treatments. Nothing […]
