The beginning of a new path

Well Dave is on vacation this week so that he can get some of the tests done and start his chemo this week. He follows up with the dentist tomorrow for his partials. Thanks again to the ones who helped in getting this done.
We went to the radiation doc. this morning so they could make a mold or mask for Davids head and shoulders. This is to hold his head in place during radiation treatment, he will have to hold completely still. He also had another pet/ct scan. Dave started having some anxiety about the process and they gave him an injection of xanax. The nurse came out to let me know why it was taking so long, and I had a bit of a panic attack, I went outside so that I could better deal with it. We were there for about 3 1/2 hours, an hour longer than we should have been there. Dave was very pale when he came out of there (he wasn't able to eat before the test).
When we arrived home to let the dogs out at 1:00, he decided he wanted to eat out. We went to a local eatery. He wanted breakfast, he ordered pancakes but they did not serve pancakes or french toast after 11:00. He said OK and ordered something else. I was expecting him to say lets go because he couldn't get what he wanted. He didn't even get upset, I like that medication, he was very calm most of the afternoon.
When we finally got home, he decided to go play on the Playstation 2. He has a game that he can play war and fly airplanes. He seems to really like it. So I left him there and ran some errands for about an hour. He was still quite calm from the earlier medication. I hope that he will be ok going through all of this. It's just a matter of getting it started and getting it over with. Thank you for listening and may God bless you. We love you all.
