Mom has a big week ahead of her.

Monday, Mom goes up to Froedert to have this cast-like thing made of her body that they will use for the radiation therapy. As I understand it, she will lay in this mold during each radiation treatment.

Wednesday, Craig and Eliana (Mom's son and youngest grandchild) are coming for a three-day visit! We will be celebrating Eliana's fifth birthday and my husband's 40th birthday on Thursday. Since Mom turns 70 next month, maybe we will have to add her special day to the festivities, too. I know Mom is really looking forward to their visit. So are the rest of us!

Friday, Mom goes back up to Froedert for a CAT scan. This test will tell us how the tumor is responding to the chemo and will help radiology map out their battle plan.

So, if you don't see Mom this week in yoga, aerobics, book club, hospice, or any other of her usual places, don't worry. She is still doing well, and is just busy, busy, busy.
