Thinking positively

Thursday, May 26, 2011
This past week has been a good one for Martin. He is eating well and his voice has come back stronger since the radiation of his throat and chest. We are waiting to see what effects there will be from the radiation of his brain. So far he has not lost any hair as was expected but it is just over a week since then. What we have noticed is that Martin seems to have more energy and is doing more on his own. He still gets tired and has the odd pain break throughs but mostly in the early morning and they are dealt with quickly with his pain meds. His spirits are up especially when his friend Carolyn comes to visit. We are so thankful for each day!

Hi Marty

We wanted to send you out a big hug and lots of sunshine from your friends up in the Northwest Territories. Although we are miles apart we think about you often. You are an inspiration!

Wahoo Marty! Glad to hear that the radiation is doing what it is supposed to do and helping you out. Sure sounds like you have a great support crew! All the best. Rob

That's great, Marty! So happy to hear your energy is up and the pain is down. We're thinking of you all the time... Reggie and I were singing, "Pants on the ground" this morning and thought of you. Anne, thank you for the update! Big hugs from the Kerford family!!!

Really glad to hear Martin is able to do some more positive things like working in his garden. :)
