More Pictures Uploaded! 4/17/2013
We have been so busy that we have fallen behind on our picture uploads. Sorry! We hope you can understand…There are some more new pictures as of yesterday and today. Some have asked about the picture that shows part of our dashboard so I will try to explain. When driving across the deserts of Arizona, […]
Getting Into the Swing of Things! 4/17/2013
We are getting into the swing of things. Travis had a good day and only said that his stomach was a little off but he was still eating. He is talking about all the things he wants to do and food he wants to eat when Tony gets here on Friday. That is a good […]
Second Day of Treatment and First Day of Chemo 4/16/2013
We started out the day the same as yesterday after the treatment (not feeling well with the same side effects). We made it to our 7:00 am appointment at MD Anderson. When they were taking vitals and accessing his port, I informed them of the problems Travis had right after the therapy yesterday. They passed […]
First Day of Treatment and Grandma Arrives in Carlsbad 4/15/2013
We had our first proton treatment today. Our day started with breakfast in the hotel and then we left for the Proton Center. Since we were not sure about the traffic, we left early and ended up getting there an hour early. We were given a quick tour of the actual treatment area and then […]
Tony and Tyler Head Back to Carlsbad 4/14/2013
After getting settled, we had a good night’s sleep in our new Home away from Home. We woke up and had breakfast which is provided by the hotel every day. We decided to go to mass at the church across the street before heading to the airport. The church turns out to be quite diverse […]
Locks of Love! 4/13/2013
We are very fortunate to have such loving family and friends! We can’t say “Thank You” enough for all that everyone is doing for us. This one is hard to describe in words and even hard to write. Travis’ 16 year old cousin, Bryan, decided he was going to shave his head in support of […]

Moving Day – Homewood Suites! 4/13/2013
As much as we liked staying up on Lake Conroe, it was time to move down to Houston so we can take care of business and get this treatment started. So we packed up the van and checked out. Before we left the lake, we had to get that fishing session in that the boys […]
Last Appointments of the Week! 4/12/2013
Since our appointments were in the afternoon, we used the morning to catch up on some things and start getting ready to leave Lake Conroe and move to the Homewood Suites in the Westchase area of Houston. Although it is beautiful here, we were not anticipating having to make the drive to Houston every day […]
Houston, the Eagle has Landed! 4/11/2013
Did we mention we had NO appointments today! That meant we were able to sleep in a little and hang out by the lake for a while before getting started on our day. Houston, the Eagle has landed, or at least the ducks, pelicans and snowy egrets. We fed the ducks and there were some […]
