Brian met with the surgeon today to get the info on Groshong Placement for chemotherapy and an open jejuneostomy feeding tube for nutrition due to radiation of the esophagus. All this is very sobering and extremely scarey for all of us. Brian is a trooper, asking the surgeon to put the central line on right side so he could still wear his guitar strap. He will have radiation mapping done on June 2nd and surgery for central line and tube placement on June 3rd. Will keep all posted of any developments.

He is still playing this weekend at two gigs with the Haywaddies.

Happy Trails

Enjoying memorial day with the family. Tomorrow is the first appointment with surgeon about chemo ports. The doctor has decided to prolong the surgery until after chemo and radiation therapy to shrink the tumor and to reduce the cancer in his lymph node. We will let everyone know more when he starts the process. We appreciate all the love and support! Jessamyn is home safe from London and Paris. Paqui is here with baby Zeyda. We will keep you posted.

Happy Memorial Day!
