WAITING

Wow who would have thought that, this activity would be so hard to do. My husband and I were told on August 11th that he has esophageal cancer. Ok so my thought is now what when does treatment start?

Not that easy. He has had more tests and biopsies to see what stage it is. Well, this past Wed we were told it is stage 3 and it will be the 30th of Sept before we will see the oncologist and find out what the plan of treatment will be. They have said surgery is probably not an option because of his other health problems. So that leaves Chemo and radiation. So when will it start and what can we do? Hopefully that will be answered on Tuesday.

It has been made worse because of the mixups of people who are incompetient in their jobs and have no oversight to see that things are done as requested. I am very upset with the Veterans Administration for those problems. Yet on the other hand I am very thankful that he has that help or he would not get the treatment he needs.

If you read this and can send a prayer on his behalf that would be greatly appreciated. We know the power of prayer and have faith that with prayer and medical assistance he will make it through this journey of his life. Thank you and have a great day.
