Tuesday 13 July 2010

Solvej had her first bout of radiotherapy today. She is feeling no real side effects yet, except extreme tiredness. She will be going in for the rest of the week and next week. Her last radiotherapy session will be Monday 26 July. She will meet with the oncologist midway, on Monday 19 July, to see how the cancer is reacting to the radiation. The oncologist advised that it is not necessary to start the chemo to the rest of the body this week. They will probably start the chemo next week.

  1. Oh Solvej--I think of you so often and have so many times hoped this would never happen. I am sorry you are feeling so poorly and hope you get a quick and thorough response to the radiation. The work you have been doing sounds so important, not to mention being auntie-extraordinaire. I am not surprised to see how many more people you have touched since living with our family for those two wonderful years!! I am glad you have gotten in touch and started this blog. All our love and strength is coming your way, all the way from Houston, TX. (can you believe we now live in Texas!). MIss you and love you, Merrill
