Amy,

The folks on this site really are the best. I can't comment on the radiation treatment John is currently undergoing, but I just wanted to wish you the best of luck. All of us are pulling for you and John, and hoping you get through this with no problems!

It sounds like you have done your research and are prepared in case the drive gets to be too much. Good for you! I am also married to a stubborn mule of a man (wouldn't trade him for the world), so I know what you are up against. But, his resolve will be one of the things that helps him get through this.

Best wishes to you Amy! Keep in touch.

Jennifer
