Halfway Done!

Missy's treatment today marked the halfway point in her radiation and chemo treatments! The radiation is definitely starting to effect her and she is extremely tired, but she is still doing amazingly well and has been so strong. She is still working and able to meet for dinner after work, but she is resting as much as possible.

We made her wig mold last weekend, so that is now in the process of being made. Making a wig mold is rather enjoyable, actually. Missy's childhood friend Natalie, Nick and I all helped her with it, and it was a fun night. She has a woman in Texas making it for her, and it should be ready in a few weeks. Her hair has started coming out, so for now she is going to get a wig from the American Cancer Society. If she is up for it, she is going by there today to see what they have.

I think that's about it for now. She is pushing on, making it through each day. Getting closer and closer to the end of these treatments. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. They are so appreciated.

That's great!! I'm not surprised to hear how strong and amazing Missy is doing. With a mom like Nancy, and sisters like you two, it was inevitable! I hate that this has happened to your family, but your family is one of the strongest I've ever met. My prayers are with all of you!! Great job Missy for being so strong!! Many people are very proud of you!!!
