Our Girl Turns 2!

A toddler birthday party is a great distraction to radiation!  And when it falls on a long weekend that stills gives us 2 full days to recover from said party - that's just lucky!

Our girl turned 2 yesterday - and she had a fantastic time at her birthday party!  We tried for as simple as possible with the 'rent the hall' route - and it was a great decision.  She had a blast with bouncy castle fun and all her little friends!

mmmm... cupcakes - or should I say - icing!

a very happy girl with all her presents

Radiation Update
Stefan has had 11 of his 28 treatments.  His drivers for the past week have had the pleasure of a tour of the radiation room and view of his treatment.  So my visit on Friday I took the same tour.

these beams make sure he's lined up just right

the machine - this can move 180 degrees, the bed also moves, quite the production

hard to see - but those two screens show Stefan in treatment
Radiation Check-in:
general: Stefan is still good.  I think he is pushing himself harder then need be.  I worry about him and do my best to not nag him too much to take it easy.
fatigue:  Stefan is on the tired side.  Still manages to go for a run during the week before radiation.  He thinks it helps with the treatment.  Not sure how much longer he'll be able to continue with it - we'll see.
hair: no loss yet
other: none so far!

Spring Sprint
The Spring Sprint is only a week away.  If you would like to join - try this link . I know the website is not the greatest - but bare with it please.  If you haven't signed up - please do so organizers can plan numbers wise.  There will be burgers after the run!  Also - if there is anyone who would like to volunteer to help with a kids tent by helping with face painting or such - please let me know!
