We have more news on Mom's treatment.
Last week she was told she couldn't get in to start her radiation for several weeks due to their schedule and the Dr. was out. We were worried that the Dr.'s in Seattle would not want her to wait too long, so she called Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and they called yesterday to say that they had spoken with the Dr. and that she was back, and would be fitting her into the schedule today.
She has an 11:30 appointment for the preliminary consultation. She will go back at the end of the week for the tattooing she will get on her leg. They do this to line up her leg accurately at each visit to receive each radiation treatment.
Mom is starting to feel a little better and is able to get around and do some things here and there as long as she stops and rests in between.
Brittain is staying with them for a few days to help Grandma with a few jobs around the house and yard. She called this morning to tell me they are having a good time. They have been watching the Olympics at night and working during the day on little projects with "rest breaks" sprinkled in between.
I'll let you know if there is anything else to report after her visit today.
As of now it looks like she will start radiation next week.
Thank you for all the prayers and encouragement.
With love,
Kimberly and family

I checked the blog first thing this morning and there wasn't anything on there. I just sat down to send a note and thought before I said anything I better check one more time.... and sure enough, you had put something on. I am glad things are moving ahead and that you hopefully can get this done once and for all. Yes the chemo has been successful as far as the Doc's are concerned, and now the radiation will help shrink that even more, but the real glory goes to God for His mercy and lovingkindness. I just cannot tell you what a wonderful testimony your ordeal has been. I look at you and think of Job... God KNEW Job and KNEW He could trust him to not give up.... Deva, God knows LADEVA... and He knows He can trust you with the trial He is allowing you to go through. What an awesome honor... and someday when you stand before the Lord - with Warren at your side, He is going to say, WELL DONE, THOU GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT(S).... I plan on being there to see that...... We love you....
We have been praying and thinking about her non stop and asking God to continue to work and sustain her daily.
KNwo you are loved and being lifted up!
