Default UPDATED info

I just spoke with my sister and got an update on Richard.
They took the stictches out of his temple area today, it isn't healing the way dr. would like (typical complications of his diabetes). They're going to make the radiation mask on Monday but aren't sure as of yet when the actual treatments will begin. It will be 60 consecutive treatments.

Richard is having an injection on Tuesday for his back. They have given him some stronger pain medication and he's able to at least get bits and pieces of rest. However, the pain is taking away his appetite and that's causing problems with the blood sugar.

Thanks for the prayers, my sister said "tell all your friends thanks so much". Continue to pray for healing and comfort for them both.


God Bless,
Marilyn
