Social Activities

Since the drains were removed, Grandma feels more comfortable in resuming some of her usual social activities. She went to church on Sunday and she is attending the senior's fellowship this morning. She will go out for lunch with her friends before coming home. It is good for Grandma to get back to some kind of normalcy before she starts her radiation treatments.

Grandma has a pre-treatment appointment at the WW Cross Cancer Institute tomorrow morning. She will be measured and the radiation dosage will be calculated. We do not know when the radiation treatments will commence. We only know that it will be 20 treatments. The radiation department closes on weekends and holidays. Even if the treatments can start on December 1, her course of treatment will span over the Christmas holidays.

Emily and Peter are going to take me and my mom to Disneyworld leaving on December 25. That means we won't be home when Grandma gets her last few treatments. My mom will have to make arrangements for someone else to transport her to and from the cancer hospital.
