We are still waiting for the results of the second spinal tap that Seth had done yesterday. Tomorrow is the big day the first day of radiation. Seth is not very excited about it actually he is dreading it.... Please pray that there will not be side effects from the radiation such as hearing loss, learning disabilities, vomiting, fatigue or burnt skin. Seth was able to go to school today. But I had to pick him up after lunch because he did not have enough energy to last the whole school day. He said he was a little nervous about what kids might think but when I picked him up he was smiling:) He said everybody was happy to see him! Here is a picture of Seth and his brother and sisters smiling for their annual "first day of school picture"
