Family, Walmart, and Treatment Plans

Tuesday, October 1:  Some of the Abarca family members arrived from California.  Sergio's parents and two of his sisters, Rosie and Maria, came to spend nine days with them.  Nanette was thrilled to see them.  She is visiting with therm and enjoying their company.  She went with his sisters to WalMart for a short shopping trip.  She's not allowed to drive so we are taking turns taking her where she wants to go.  She tires easily and uses a traveling wheel chair but she is determined to get out and have a change of scenery.  We are in a "holding pattern" while she heals and gets stronger so they can start her radiation and chemo at the Huntsman Cancer Center.  They will do both treatments simultaneously.  She will go five days a week for six weeks for the radiation and then that will end the radiation.  She will continue with the chemo (a pill) for many months after.
