This past week has been busy for our family…..
Ron continues to stay busy with school, classes at the U, and basketball games at Bingham High. He did get the results of the radon test in our house; it came back high, so now Ron is doing research to find out how to ventilate our home. If you are interested in ordering a radon test click on this site….http://www.radon.utah.gov/. Since January is national radon awareness month the kit only costs $6.00.
Savanna continues to enjoy student teaching at Draper Elementary, she is also helping with coaching the lacrosse team.
Marie enjoyed having Monday and Tuesday off from school. She was thrilled yesterday when her winter league team won the championship game. Marie played well and even scored a goal!!!!
On Thursday Ron went with me to see Dr. Avizonis, the radiologist. It was informative meeting with her. She talked to us about my next round. I am thrilled that I will have next week off, but then starting on Feb. 2nd I will be starting radiation and chemo. I will have radiation every day for 6 weeks, and then I will have chemo for 5 days in a row and then 2 weeks off. It will be a more aggressive round so I hope that my body will be able to handle this treatment. I have been blessed with having minimal side effects so far, hopefully it will continue! On Thursday I also got my radiation tattoos….too bad they look like freckles; it is hard for me to find some of them!
We appreciate everyone’s prayers and thoughts for us. Thank you!!!

What a regimen! Sounds like the medical teams try to prepare you mentally for the treatments. Your attitude is amazing. We pray for you and Judy everyday. Just remember we're in your fan club.
I think everyone in our subdivision needs to test their home for radon because another home tested high a few years' ago. I hope you really enjoy this week "off". I pray that your already "strong" body will be able to handle the next treatments.
Hey what are you doing getting a TATOO! Haven't you heard what the prophet said about those things?!?
:) :) :)
I need to get one of those radon kits for my home. That is scary.
Anyway good luck on the next set of treatments. We are praying for you and your family continually. Please know we love you guys and want all of this to work out great. Take care and enjoy your week off.
