Thanks, again everyone.
Once again I am at a loss or words to respond to this.
Just know that we appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers.
By the way I think moms initial shock is over and she is allready shifting toward the I am going to beat this mode.

Well she went through her first session and said she hated it.
She hates the fact that they put a hood over her head that is marked like a map so they know exactly where to target the most. Said it drives her nuts.
I guess they told her if she cant relax from now on they will have to restrain her. That pissed her off even more I think.
Well that is about all I have for now.

Figured you all might like these. This is my first of at least two head covers/hats I am making for mom. I just finished it. Not bad for the first one.

Just a little update.
Moms sessions are going much better. She is in and out in 5 minutes or less.
So she can handle that, but still doesnt like it.
The friday sessions get her down a little also. She thinks they give her a bigger dose to last the weekend.
Other than that just tired. I told her to sleep and recover as much as possible.
I will let you know how things progress.
Thanks,
Phill
Glad to see everything is going well for the most part. You keep doing what youāre doing it it will make it as easy for her as possible. From what Iām reading if she didnāt have you she would not be able to go through this. - PGA
Well it has been a bit since any good news came in until today.
Mom had a meeting with the oncologist and he said she is doing great and doesnāt want to see her for three months.
She asked and he gave the O.K. to start lifting again. She has to start slow though he said. But she can start with the deads, squats, DB press and such again. That made her quite happy.
Also she should be getting her hat and shirt thursday or friday.
So all is going better as for today.
Thanks
Phill
Phill-
Thatās wonderful news! Your momās a real trouper and I have a feeling with her determination sheās going to be back to where she left off in the gym in no time. This is a day for celebration! Give her our best.

Here is one with it on my nugget.
Well mom finished her last session of radio. For this she is HAPPY.
She hope now to regain the energy that it has been sapping from her. She has been sleeping a lot.
When she gets that energy back it will be time to really hit the weigth again she says. She has received the O.K., just need to start slow and progress once again.
Just wanted to give a quick little update.
Phill
Just wanted to tell you all that mom was hitting the weight last night for the first time.
I should see how it went sometime today. She has to start slow, but is glad to get back at it.
Phill
Well a little update.
Mom had here first w/o the other night. She is not happy having to keep the weight so low. " I am not even sore. " I told her give it two weeks to get back into it before moving up. I just dont want her to overdue it.
She is also walking a mile every morning.
So generally things seem to be going pretty good. Just trying to keep her spirits up.
Two and a half weeks and I will see first hand. I will get plenty of pics. and such.

Keep your head up youād be surprised the amount of strength your mom gets from you!!
Well itās been a while since I have given an Update on this.
I have been holding out knowing that I will be visiting her and will probably update you all more than you ever wanted. I will be flying home in just a matter of hours now.
So Over the next two weeks I can load you all with updates and pics first hand.
For now seems as everthing is going good from what she tells me. She has been lifting and doing a lot of walking. Trying to get in shape for my visit from what she says.
Anyhow. I will be there about 9am this morning. So I will give you all a first hand update in the near future.
Goota Run.
