Treatment is OVER!

Radiation treatment is done! 17 days of radiation went by really fast and I cruised through it with ease. The only problem I have experienced so far is a very sore throat. It feels like my throat is lined with needles and every time I swallow, my throat contracts and the needles stab my throat. This will probably go on for the next two weeks and may get worse. The radiation is cumulative so it will continue to do it’s job for the next 2-4 weeks. After 4 weeks I will go in for another PET Scan.

I am done with treatment and it’s the best feeling! I walked out of my oncology center with the biggest smile on my face. My nurses gave me a really cool pendant with an angel engraved in it along with a LIVESTRONG bracelet. Lots of hugs and good luck and I of course thanked them profusely.

The support and prayers I received from all of my friends and family was over whelming. I had people all over the world praying for me and I truly believed GOD answered all those prayers. Thank you to everyone who prayed and offered their support and thanks to GOD for answering MY prayers!

Fantastic news Jason! Take some time for yourself now; do something exciting with the family! Maybe Hawaii in August? We will all be there (on one island or another and we have plenty of room for the family to stay with us). Take care, Love Ronnie & RObert
