Easter, and Radiation begins.

        Easter was beautiful, and we grilled hot dogs and burgers at Mom's. The party was incomplete without Bruce, who was home with a hurt back, but we had a grand time and enjoyed a lazy Sunday, and walked the yard and flower beds. The burgers and dogs were perfect, as was the weather, and we sat on the deck, simply being with one another. Emily and I were thinking much of a short movie we watched in service for Easter. A dear friend Bill shared it with me last year, and my heart breathes deeply every time I watch it. The link is below. It's 20 minutes that you won't regret, but have a hankerchief handy.

        On a further note, radiation began today with one of our favorite doctors. The treatments will continue weekly, Monday through Friday, for five weeks. To counter the previous post that states that the cancer isn't anywhere else, he tells us that there is an "uptake" from the test in the esophagus and intestines. This awakens the possibility that there is, at most, cancer in those places (at the least, abnormalities). We'll keep you posted on what develops, and we will know something more as of Friday.
