I am going to make this quick since I am in so much pain and it is hard for me to sit. The ache in my tailbone ended up to be a tumor growing right at the base of the tailbone. It was on my scan but the radiologist missed it and so it kept getting worse and worse and finally one of my doctors looked at the actual scan instead of the report and saw the tumor. Long story but I was just glad to know that the pain in my behind was something real.
So I am now undergoing 15 treatments of radiation to shrink the tumor. I have to go every day and today was my 4th treatment. It is pretty easy, lasts about 10 minutes and I don't have any side effects. I just hope that I will be able to sit again sometime soon. The doctors are pretty confident that this will ease my pain sometime soon.
Mike again has stepped up and been such a trooper. My pain meds keep me pretty loopy and so he does quite a bit for me and makes sure that I am comfortable. I really don't know what I would do without him. He is my everything.
Hopefully I'll be able to sit for longer and put some fun pictures on here soon. Just keep me in your prayers and know that I love you all.

Sorry about your sore bum. Thinking of you. I'm glad Mike is taking good care of you.
Just talked with Mom and Dad today and they said the pain is more manageable after meeting with your hospice nurse. Hopefully this will help for a long time! Love ya!
