Well today we finally got through the radiation simulation. Third time was a charm!  Since Alex has to be sedated  he is not allowed to eat before the procedure.  When you combine the steroid he's on with not eating that makes for one cranky Alex.  Talk about "roids rage."  Once he has a good meal in him he's much happier.  The steroid also is making him retain water and his cheeks are puffing out like a little chipmunk.  He had a good evening visiting with his Aunt Helen and Uncle Ross who stopped by for a visit.  Actual radiation along with oral chemo starts Tuesday.  Time to start beating the crap out of this thing!
