Doctor Appointments

Last Friday Troy met with Dr. Riley, the ENT, and he stuck the scope down his throat and confirmed that it was all burnt up in there. His quote: "Good for me... not good for you." Troy still is too sore to consume food just yet. We're hoping he will feel up to eating in the next couple of weeks. He saw Dr. Allen, the Radiation Oncologist, yesterday and she didn't have anything too uplifting to say - just basically that it is a healing process and it takes time. Today Troy went to the oncologist's office and met with Brandon, the Physician's Assistant. He thought that Troy's neck looked really red (which it does). This seems to be a little bit of an anomaly it seems, but every day it seems to get a little better and the redness seems to fade. Troy is still tired a lot so we try to let him rest the best that we can. He has been trying to go into work once or twice a week for the past few weeks. He hasn't even been doing a full day because it tires him out quickly right now. He does best working from home where he can stretch out on the bed with his lap top there and a phone by his side. We planned our trip to Disney for March 21-28 so we are hoping he gains some energy back in the next couple of weeks.
