Radiation

Hi there everyone! Jessi had an appointment with Dr. Wang on July 29th who is a radiation specialist. Jessi has to have radiation because when they did surgery they think there still maybe some of the tumor left. One of the tumors was so close to one of her artery lines, so to be on the safe side they want to treat it with radiation for seven days! The treatment is only five minutes but they have to sedate her because she has to be super still. She will be getting her treatments in Sunset Kaiser which is in LA. So needless to say Jessi and I will be commuting. She has to be there at 8:00am so that means we have to leave our house at 5:45 am to beat traffic and Jessi can't have anything to eat or drink so that will be a fun ride! I really want to thank all our friends at Mission lei Community church for helping out with gift cards and a gas card. We are so Thankful to have such wonder full friends in our lives. Jessica is all done with radiation. It made her sick at times and tired but other then that Jessi is doing great, she is so amazing. And we love her so much you should see her now she has a head full of hair it's so beautiful. Thank you for all your support and prayers!
