Update 9/18/2015

Things are still going well. Tuesday we went to Upenn for Devin's radiology appointment. They did a CT scan and made the mask she will wear during the treatments. It conforms to her head/face and is marked to help guide the radiation. It also holds her head still. I am amazed how well she tolerated it as I know I couldn't have. The whole thing took about 45 minutes. Then we made her appointments for the 6 weeks and headed home. The first week of appointments as pretty ugly as they are all evening appointments but after that the next 5 weeks are late morning early afternoon. She will not start radiation until September 29 (after the Pope leaves Philadelphia) and will finish on November 10th.

Thursday Owen and Devin went in to see Dr. Canaday as she had started to develop a small infection again last week. He was very pleased that the antibiotics are doing their job and all looked good. He will see her again in November near the end of radiation to plan the next (hopefully last) surgery.

If you would like to donate to help Devin with her medical expenses here is a link to her Go Fund Me site.  Enjoy your weekend and keep those prayers coming!

Hugs,
Rose
