Update

Dad's last chemo and radiation will be next Tuesday. He will have two weeks off and then they will decide if they will do more radiation and chemo.

Other than all the usual side effects of radiation and chemo he seems to be doing ok. The Carnation VHC has been a true blessing. I can't even begin to say enough good about it. Just went and picked up two more cases for him today. He's been managing to get in at least 5 cans a day.

I'm looking forward to the day that I can say that he is through with treatments.
