Long Day???

Today was rather stressful and it seemed like it we were getting no where. Me and Peggy, my sister were at the lawyers office for awhile today getting the POA on my BIL. The insurance company is driving us up a wall. So, I called my attorney and done what had to be done. So now the insurance company is going to have to deal with Peg. Hopefully, she can get something done now, concerning his insurance. Insurance companies are just a joke at times. I'm sure that we have all dealth with some crazy things when it comes to the insurance companies. Peg had to call all the doctors office and is tring to get a schedule set up for the radiation treatments. The doctor said Friday that he wants Burkett to have radiation treatments twice a day, starting this week. This is so sad. I was with them most of the day and the wind has been knocked out of Burkett's sails. I just don't know what to say at this point. HOPE....that is what I have. He is really fearful of the radiation more than he is of the chemo. He has not been feeling well at all today. He told me that he feels like that he is living in a dream. I can understand that. He said today that he is sick of ice cream and Jell-O. I told him to eat what he wanted to eat because there might be a day that he can't. He said that his daughter Jami bought 15 gallons of ice cream...I think that he was joking..take care and have a good week...peace, love and happiness
