Whatever it is he won't be alone. I've been talking to him about it, he really didn't want to have it at first because he is scared but he always says he will do anything he has to =). He knows a little about it because my older sister had this rare tumor retinoblastoma when she was three and she needed radiation so we put her as an example that we are lucky this treatment exists. His doctor didn't even want to touch the subject then because he sees that everything is going well so I'm crossing my fingers for tomorrow and forever Benfry
