Journal entry by Daneen Theobald —
He’s DONE! He rang the bell this afternoon!
Brian is starting to face some of the pain they told us about when we started this journey. He woke up this morning with more mouth sores, and a blister on the inside of his bottom lip. He is also having more difficulty swallowing, due to the radiation sores in his throat 🥺. He has good pain medications, so hopefully he can get through this coming week without too much pain.
We really had great service by all the staff at Mayo Clinic!
Today, after ringing the bell, we all received hugs from the coffee lady in the radiation department.
Thank you all again for all the prayers that have been said for Brian and myself!
