Our number-two daughter starts radiation therapy this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I gather that she’ll be going in Monday through Friday, but if I knew how long it will be going on, I’ve lost that bit of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quite aside from the worry I’m probably feeling about the cancer we all hope has already been removed \u2014 I don’t know how she and that household will manage the logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They live in rural North Dakota. She’ll be going to a medical facility that’s about an hour down the road. That’s about two hours of each weekday, right there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add whatever time it takes to sign in, get the radiation treatment(s) done, and sign out: my guess is that there’ll be about three hours out of each weekday, 15 hours each week, dedicated to this medical process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make that 30 hours, if the treatments make driving an ill-advised activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She and our son-in-law are operating businesses, as well as raising our grandchild. I don’t know how they’ll get everything done. But I’m pretty sure they will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for what’s next in reference to the cancer: I’m hoping that it will be in remission. Or gone. Hoping and praying, and I’ll wind this up with more-or-less-related links:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
