Treatment Update

I just talked to Sylvia. Jill has started taking steroids to reduce the inflamation caused by the tumor in her spine and this has already reduced her discomfort and eliminated the double vision. She is starting radiation treatment next week. This should start to reduce the size of the tumor itself. Radiation that she had in March was quite effective on specific tumors.

Have a nice weekend everyone.
