Radiation is starting

Dr. Bethany Anderson at Johnson Creek Cancer center has it worked out with Matt's Insurance to do radiation on his leg.  Matt still continues to have pain in his left leg.  The pain is not all day long but when he moves it from a sitting position or standing position it gets a sharp pain.  Also some days it just hurts to walk. 

Matt will have five appointments of radiation.  He will start tomorrow (5/11) and continue Thursday (5/12), Friday (5/13), Monday (5/16) and Tuesday (5/17).   This should help Matt with the pain.  Hopefully he will no longer have any pain with getting this radiation. This will work out with his clinical trial.  Matt cannot be on radiation or chemo for four weeks prior to the start of the clinical trial. 

Matt is scheduled to start on the clinical trial mid June or end of June. 

Matt has been working some almost every day. He is very happy to be working again!!

Thank you to everyone for all your continued thoughts and prayers!!
