Samantha has now finished 4 1/2 weeks of radiation and only 2 weeks to go. She started losing her hair about 2 weeks ago and decided yesterday to shave what was left. She remains in good spirits and does not let much of anything get her down. Her steroids are being lowered every three days and we are close to being off them completely. We are looking forward to that as they have so many side effects.
Today we spent a few hours at the Memphis Zoo. Her & Christopher really enjoyed it and of course Kurt & I were very happy to have our family together smiling. Enjoy the pictures. I'm sure I will be adding more after the weekend is over. As always please keep on praying for Samantha.
Love,
Audra, Kurt, Christopher, & Samantha
