Okay, this is a long overdue blog and my excuse is that it has been a rather busy couple of weeks.

It started with an afternoon appointment with the radiation oncologist late on Monday 4th.  Followed by simulation for her treatment on Tuesday, which is also the day that we have the pleasure of Jax's company. We are lucky that Jax is fairly easy to entertain, I took him for an ice cream while Elaine was measured up.  Wednesday was a day off but Elaine is doing it tough with a lot of pain, so we are kept busy trying to keep that under control. Thursday and Friday I had pleasurable granddaughter duties while Elaine suffered at home. Then Monday was chemo, actually immunotherapy, Tuesday Jax again then we had Wednesday to recover. Wednesday was also a visit with our pain specialist, the clinic at Chatlies actually squeezed us in and we were able to fine tune the medication. Thursday and Friday we started radiation which consists of Elaine spending 1 whole hour under the machine. However she handled it well.

The pain is still there but the medication is helping a bit more so we just keep rolling along. Hopefully the combination on immunotherapy and radiotherapy will reduce the tumours and therefore the pain. Fingers crossed.
