MRI, no Brain Surgeon, Friday Radiation

Liver MRI: Brace had an uneventful MRI this morning. It takes a while for the write-up and CD. After talking with Dr. Carroll the other day I'm not that worried about it. He then ran to LA to work with a client today.

Trust: One of my clients is an estate lawyer and was kind enough to meet with me this morning to setup our family trust. Everything should be set by next week. If you need a referral, she was amazing and gave me great advice.

Dana and LouAnn Lake came to visit Brace this afternoon from Arizona. It was a treat to see them. I forgot to take a picture.

Brain Surgeon: He was on call at the hospital and had two surgeries. We postponed out appointment to next Wednesday.

Fast Radiation: We are coming home now from radiation. It was his fastest yet. He doesn't complain or freak out, which they said is uncommon. Until we did this I had no idea what radiation on your face really meant. We are thrilled with the doctors and the techs here.

Salt and Soda: To save his teeth they want him rinsing his mouth every hour with salt and soda water. His mouth is really dry because Dr. Chou says the radiation shocks the salivary glands and you get less saliva. James came up with the idea to tie his bike backpack to the bed so he can just lean over and take a swig. He really liked that last night. He said he has a headache. He says he isn't surprised since his head was ziptied to the table.

He seems better today than yesterday. No radiation Saturday and Sunday. Tomorrow we are going to buy carpet for the cabin.
