Today was Mom’s first day of treatment for colon cancer. She was scheduled to begin both chemotherapy, the pill form for now, as well as radiation, but wasn’t able to start the pills because they failed to arrive on time. If I understand everything correctly, and given nothing changes, she is scheduled to have a total of 33 treatments beginning today before being given a break. At the end of the break, which will last for a few weeks, assuming the chemo and radiation have done their job of shrinking the tumor, she will then have surgery. Following surgery she will then begin intravenous chemotherapy for some time.
I really appreciate all of the support, thoughts, and prayers. It means more to me than you all will ever know.
