ZAP ZAP ZAP

The radiation treatment that Delight took on Monday was very hard on her. She was able to come to work yesterday but today she didn't feel like it at all. This morning when I talked to her she said that her head was so sore that she didn't even want to move it. Also she was extremely tired. You know that she didn't feel good if she didn't come to work. Tonya talked to her this afternoon and she said that she felt a little better but her head was still so sore.

Monday they arrived at Presbyterian Hospital shortly after 5:00am. She said that there was one person ahead of her. The shots that they gave her to deaden the pain hurt her so bad that she cried. They screwed 4 screws in head to hold the helmet in place. They left marks on her forehead where they were screwed into the skull. They found one more place on the back of her head when they did the scan. But they were able to zap that place too when they were zapping. She had to wear this helmet from about 7:15 until 1:00. She said that her neck got extremely tired. Peggy was able to come over and visit with her and Terry Joe. Delight was glad that she was able to come and stay with them.

Delight wanted me to THANK everyone for the food that everyone has been bring to them. It was sure helped them out the past couple of weeks. That is one less thing that they have to worry about. If anyone would like to prepare a meal...please contact Tonya at the bank. She is doing a good job of keeping them from getting to much food at one time. THANKS again from The Eidson's.

Blu, Jennifer and Kaylee came in this past weekend and brought little Joe who has now joined their family. Everyone had a big time getting to meet this precious little guy. What a blessing he is going to be to this family. Blayd was happy to have a boy join the family!! I'm sure that will become big buddies. They are almost the same size and almost the same age...only a couple of weeks separate them in age. We are going to give Jennifer a shower March 8. They hope everyone will come and meet Joe.

Remember Delight in your prayers today.
