Tuesday AM at 4:45 I check-in to UCLA Medical Center to receive Brachytherapy starting Wednesday.

Tuesday they will put-in the cathaters and trach and nose feeding tube. All of which will stay in for maybe 10 days to support 2 treatments a day for about 8 days.

On discharge, I will spend a few days with my son Ted in Irvine where we are currently and have been watching Breaking Bad!!
