Visit with the Radiation Oncologist

I start Radiation on Monday, April 6.  I will be going everyday for four weeks.  Not the six weeks I had thought it would be.  Dr. Poppe is fast tracking me into a four week time frame because I am traveling so far for treatment.  Dr. Poppe tried to get me to get a hotel room for the week and going home on the weekend, thinking it would probably be cheaper for us, but our car gets pretty good gas mileage.

I have my kids to worry about and life up here. I can't afford to be gone all week with kids that need help with homework and one that needs to be prodded to get his online classes done so he can graduate high school.  Jim's job gets crazy this time of year at the golf course, especially with it being such a mild winter, his boss is wanting everything ready to go and now!  It's crazy, but we'll make it work, whatever we have to do.
