New activities

Hello to all-
For the past month we have been a bit of a holding pattern with Remington. He has had a round of chemo and has started radiation therapy up at the Huntsman Cancer institute. Remi will complete the first phase of radiation therapy this Thursday if he stays on schedule. This is the broad beam therapy that is covering the whole left side of his chest. The next step will be narrow beam radiation focused on the surgery and tumor sites. (This will last for 20 treatments.) During this time Remi will have to complete one last round of chemo therapy. If he stays of schedule, he will be completely done on the 2oth of November. It will be almost exactly one year from the time he was diagnosed with ewings sarcoma to the time his treatment is completed!
So far Remi has not had any major side effects from the radiation treatments. The most common side effects are fatigue and the skin at the treatment site turning red like a sunburn. So far we have seen little of either side effect. Thank you for all of your support during this time in our lives.
