Houston
Well after 2 days and 20 hrs of driving we made it to Houston yesterday. We met with the MD Anderson Cancer proton therapy team this morning. They went over the basic plan for James. So he has to have an MRI, X-ray and meet with the oncology team and then next Wednesday he has his simulation where they pretty much go through the whole process but don't give him radiation. Then the week after he will start his Proton therapy for 6 weeks. So it's 8 weeks total, the nice thing though is that once he is done he can just go home he won't have to stick around. He will loose his hair again and they went over some long term side effects that he might get. After the meeting we talked about it and we still feel like it's what's best for James. The chance of the cancer coming back is just too high for us to not do anything. The only thing that stinks is there is a good chance I will have the baby without Sam. So since he isn't starting treatment for about 2 weeks we are just gonna try to do fun things before James starts feeling bad.
