extra innings

Well, today was supposed to be the finale. For some crazy reason, that we still don't understand, they have upped the radiation to 18 days. That means he will be going next week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
He is not doing very well. He has sores all over his upper chest and is in excruciating pain. The little white pills, when he can swallow, have become his friend. The difficulty in breathing is so bad, he cant sleep for fear he wont be able to breathe.
He is staying strong, not complaining, but the pain is visible. The symptoms should last a few weeks to months before he starts feeling any better. There will be good, then bad days. The roller coaster rolls on.
3 more days...............

We are keeping Billy in our prayers! Hopefully the treatment will be over soon and he can look forward to all good things!

Love,
