Dale started losing his hair from the cemo, so a week ago he had me shave his head and face. He looks very different. I told him that he looks more like Mike without his beard. He informed me that Mike looks like him because he was born first. He has not been without his beard in 32 years. He is alittle cold without it and hopes it will grow back fast. He is done with cemo and his last day of radiation was yesterday. He is very excited about not having to do all that bull_ _ _ _! everyday. Dr. Mercer, (his cancer doctor) started him on morphine for his pain in his throat. We are hoping he will be able to tolerate eating alittle bit more with that pain killer kicking in. He is feeling better everyday. Yesterday he even put his coveralls on and went outside to help Clint. That was the first time in about three weeks. He will continue to get fluids through his port until the surgery. We did get it arranged to go to DeWitt for that, instead of driving to Davenport everyday. Hopefully we can keep Dale healthy and not lose anymore weight until his surgery on February 24th. I will post more later.
Love
Kath & Dale
