Sam's Radiation Finally Begins

On Monday, Nov 5, Sam will start the first of 40 rounds of radiation for prostate cancer at Hershey Med. He will be going 5 days a week an hour an appointment for the next 8 weeks. I will go with him for a few of the treatments. He should be able to continue working throughout the radiation. Predicted side effects are fatigue and digestion upset.
We are so glad to get this process started. I will keep you updated as he goes through the treatments. All prayers for a complete recovery are appreciated.

Hi Sam and Wendy!
I think of you very often, and know that it must be very difficult on lots of different levels. I'm sure its not fun taking all those trips to Hershey, let alone the side effects those trips must bring. I certainly have been and will continue to keep you both in prayer...and yes nothing short of a full recovery.
