Another good day!

The appointment to set things up for radiation went smoothly today. Everyone was so kind and tried to make the experience as pleasant as possible. I was even able to crack a couple jokes as they wrote with sharpies on my tush (to get me lined up for radiation treatments). (Hope College girls can especially laugh at that one!) Jay and I went over the calendar for the next month and I think he finally gets why I am always running around half crazy. Jay has been a rock star taking over both daddy and mommy jobs. And thanks to all our friends who are helping shuttle Mac boys around and having fun. Spent some time at Hope Scarves today too. Erica is holding down the fort magnificently and several amazing friends have volunteered to help with administrative jobs. I am so thankful to have their support. If you have made a donation to hope scarves in the past couple weeks. I promise you will receive a thank you letter soon! Our scarf requests are up for the week just based on more people learning about the organization. I am so humbled that my diagnosis has already meant more people are supported by our mission. We meet with my medical oncologist Dr. Williams tomorrow morning to put all the pieces together and make a plan. If all goes smoothly I will have my first radiation treatment tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow will be a big step toward getting rid of this tumor. I am so ready. With hope, Lara
