Lorraine went to therapy after lunch. Dale came and picked me up at 1:45 to talk to Dr. Nordquist about the test results. It appears there is only the one cancer and another lymph node suspect. He suggested five weeks of radiation and chemo. He called Dr. Longo and he said that would probably be the best route. I can take the treatments at the Cancer Center at Methodist but will have to see another Dr. Can't get in to see him before the 11th so I won't be able to start treatment until after that. It is going to be a long process with pain relief for 10 days and then it will take a couple of weeks before it starts to shrink. After we finished at the Doc's we went ot Kohls and I got a walker. It is going to help alot.
