Gloria - I am so sorry to hear this latest news; I will pray that the radiation does its job and eliminates the tumor. I know this is a very hard journey for both of you; your strength and support to John is amazing.

Be sure to take care of yourself along the way as well. John has his pottery; do you have an 'escape' passion also?

How is John's swallowing coming?

Best,
Nancy
