Change in plans

This is a picture of Dale about to recieve his third dose of radiation to the brain. It went pretty well. They let him keep the face mask which he wore at home and scared his brothers. There has been a slight change in plans. The surgery to place the central line has been changed to Feb. 5th. Total body radiation will start on 2/6 and continue for 4 days followed by 4 more days of chemotherapy(2 days of ARA -C and 2 days of Cyclophosphamide). His day of rest will be 2/14 and the transplant with Derek will take place on 2/15 (Thursday). Dale will be admitted to the hospital on 2/5. Derek will be admitted on 2/15. Unfortunately, Dale caught a cold (from me) . We are hoping he will get over it by Monday. He is still going to school. This weekend will be spent doing our regular routine: baseball practice, basketball games, violin lessons and most importantly going to church to pray for a successful transplant. Thank you for your continued support. We are very thankful to those who have signed up to give platelets and blood.

Here are a few more pictures. Dale tried snow boarding for the first time last Saturday 2/27 at Mountain High and played the violin at church and at our cousins anniversay party on Sunday.
