Sundays with Grey

Grey with his Christmas haul on his vacation in New Mexico


Rick finished his radiation treatments on Friday so they gave him his mask that they custom fit to the persons face.


I caught him smiling.  He loves to go down the slide and will smile each time. 

We had the Schoenrocks over for dinner today because we wanted to sue some of the ham so Rick made a ham and potato soup.  Grey enjoyed it too.  He was so sweet and he took to Ginger just fine.  They had gotten him a swing for the tree and some books.  He tried out the swing but Blake pushed him to high and fast and so he was not a fan.  I think he will enjoy it once he gets a bit bigger and we do it more slowly.  Since Rick missed his treatment for the holidays, they did two on Thursday and one on Friday so he was feeling pretty tired today at church.  I could tell he was struggling on the stand to stay away.  He fell asleep for a catnap when the Schoenrocks were here but then he got his second wind.  They said he will still feel the affects for a couple more weeks but I am glad he gets to take a break for a while.  He will have chemo for the next four months but just for 5 days each month and a double dose those days.  He will have a MRI the end of January and then they will do them every two months and compare them to the January one  to see if there is any new growth.

Justin has that same mask of his head on his dresser. They did a career night with a doc (is it radiology oncologist or something like that?) And he made one of Justin. Glad Rick gets a bit of a break but it still sounds a bit intense for awhile! Grey looks like he made out great for his first Christmas!

Yes that is who Rick saw a radiology oncologist. He said it was super cool when they made it.
