Amanda finished her week of radiation last week. The first couple days she had flu like symptoms and a lot of leg pain.  She is unsure if the cause of the pain was from the radiation, the bone building infusion or starting her third cycle of her chemo medication.  Things did get better for her as the week went on.

On Saturday, Amanda is starting physical therapy.  This should help build back some of her strength, reduce numbness in her hands, and hopefully reduce fatigue.  

The plan is to wait until after her fourth round of chemo medication and then do another PET Scan.  This will let us know how the cancer in the bones is responding to the medications.  This scan is scheduled for the first week in June.

Amanda has been busy getting some hours in at work, attending the boys sporting events and spending some time with friends.  Even with her not feeling well, you often can't tell.  She has such a positive outlook that truly is so admirable. Keep Amanda & her boys in your thoughts and prayers!
