On Wednesday we entered into a new round of treatment for Ed. A six month chemo pill cycle plus Optune therapy - a treatment that creates electric fields to help keep the glioblastoma cells from growing. It’s invasive, uncomfortable, and has to be worn almost all the time, while being “zapped” at least eighteen hours a day. We knew from the beginning that this was something Ed was going to try because for those that stick with it, it’s proven to be pretty effective. As each phase of this unwelcome adventure unfolds, we face it with hope, sadness, bravery, love, anxiety, strength, and so many other feelings. We continue to take one day at a time... and are grateful for the amazing amount of love that surrounds Ed and our family.
