Monday again?

My dad starts his radiation treatment today. He has to go to Toronto every weekday for the next 5 weeks to have this done. My mom went with him today, so I’m glad he’s not alone for his first day of treatment.

He is getting a really low dose of radiation, so he shouldn’t lose his hair or anything. He may lose just 2 patches of hair where the beams enter his head. I really hope this works in slowing or stopping the growth of the tumour! It will probably be several months before we know if it worked, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed!

Yesterday was such a gorgeous day, so CT and I went for a walk along the trails in a local park. Was it ever great to get out to enjoy the weather! And today is another absolutely gorgeous day which works out well for me since I’ll be out in the field this afternoon.
