Well we are into the sixth week. They are shooting the radiation more directly on to the tumor with a higher dose. This is causing more fatigue and weakness for Delwin. He is still however staying at work as long as he can. Dr. Winter's has recommended that Delwin stay on the seizure medication for now this was disappointing but we will mind the Dr. Delwin will have two more radiation treatments next week because of the two holidays we had( 5th of July and the 23th of July). We still do not know how the treatments are effecting the tumor. After the radiation he will have another MRI and then Dr. Winters will let us know what is going on with the tumor. The drs are with drawing the steroid medication which is having some side effects but are not as bad as they could be. When we look at all the possible side effects of all the meds. delwin is taking he really is doing very, very well and we know that, that is a direct blessing from our Heavenly Father in answer to all of our prayers. We will take every Blessing!

4th week down and things are going well. Friday delwin had a eeg to check for seizures. If he is not having them then he can go off the medicine he is taking for seizures if he is having them then he will have to take the medicine the rest of his life not so good. I don't know when the Dr. will call and let us know. On Monday July 19 he will have another mri so they can aim the radiation tighter on the tumor. Great news is that Jason received his mission call on Wed. and he is going to Chile the Concepcion mission he will leave September 29th. We are very excited! Only Two weeks and two days left of the radiation! We remember that every day is a miracle!

Half Way! and things are going pretty well. Delwin is still feeling ok the radiation fatigue is setting in. Delwin is still working about five hours a day. His hair is starting to fall out so that is kind of interesting. His white blood count is still ok! The Dr is lowering the dose of the steroid and so far that is going ok as well. We have three weeks and two days left so the time is passing. We don't know how all the treatment are effecting the tumor yet, we won't know for a while . But we remember that each day is a miracle, which we are very thankful for.

Another week down! Delwin is doing really well. The chemo could cause nausea and throwing up but he is still okay, his white blood count is alright as well. The radiation will cause fatigue and it will get worse as the treatments go on. He is starting to feel that and weakness in his legs. Last week he was able to work about 5 hours a day which really made him happy. There are lots things happening there and it would be hard not to be able to know first hand those changes.
We had everyone home this weekend before Keriann went to Iowa. It was really great. Only five more weeks.

One week down 5 more to go! Delwin is doing really well with the treatments. He has not been sick and has been able to go into work several hours a day. We go down for the radiation in the morning and then he goes to work I go with him and read or nap until he is worn out then I drive him home. He rests for a little bit and works on the computer (work) until about 5:00pm then we get up in the morning and do it all again. We saw both Doctors and they seemed to be pleased with the first week. We will not know how it is effecting the tumor for at least a couple of months or longer. So we are still just one day at time but each day is a gift and a miracle which we are very thankful for.
