Mary Ann
Melynna August 26th, 2006
After this weeks extensive testing, we now have a completely different report. The doctors have now decided Mary Ann needs to start the radiation treatments. Those daily treatments will begin on September 5th and last six weeks. During that six week period she will have two chemotherapy treatments along with her radiation instead of the weekly chemo she has been receiving. The doctors have told her parents the radiation will make her mouth extremely sore. Besides the discomfort of the treatments, she and another family member will be required to stay in Bloomington during the week and only travel home on the weekends.
