hi christine,

dad did have 4 stents put in last tuesday and they just released him on friday.. during his stay, he was able to get in his first two BIG doses of radiation.. today was day 3, wed 4, and friday will be dose 5 plus his Erbitux.. i will say that dad is quite exhausted but will continue to fight! i told please not to push and push for us, we know he is a fighter.. he is already my hero.. but he says as long as he has an option he will take it.. god love him!
thank you so much again, i will be in touch..
oh and the rads will be 6 large doses, not the 6 weeks of 5 days a week..
