Wednesday Evening......October 3rd

2 radiations to go.........

Linda is bearing up pretty well...the pain is starting to creep up.....on the scale used (1 being the least and 10 the most), she is starting to feel the 7's and 8's......the doctor has increased her Phentanyl patch strength and she is taking the oxycodone pain medication every couple of hours now. Linda was experiencing nausea with the pain medication as it's use increased....the pharmacist today said that was to be expected and said the use of the nausea medication prior to the pain medication was the right thing we were doing.

More tomorrow....

    Linda and Dave,

    This is definitely the home stretch. You are both an inspiration. We read your blog everyday here across the creek and are so grateful for it. We hope that soon you will be able to wade the creek and join us for dinner.
    Liz and Jack
