Here are a few pictures from last week when we got Barre's pics done professional. They all turned out so good!! He was such a good boy while we were changing him many times and changing props and backgrounds; he just went with the flow. He's such a good lookin boy!! We also had his 4 mth checkup last week and he weighs 13lb 5oz and is 24 in long! He's gettin so big! His smile just melts me..it's contagious. He laughs in his sleep often and it cracks me up!

Well I go in to the hospital for internal radiation tomorrow morning at 6am. I have to go into surgery for them to place some tools and then I will go into a private room for anywhere from 24 hr to 48 hr so they can administer internal radiation throughout the day..just another part of my treatment plan. If you are unsure how internal radiation works, what it's all about, and you are curious, look up either internal radiation or brachytherapy..it's too in depth for me to get into it on here. I had 5 days of external radiation all last week and I am feeling the side effects from it this weekend. It's definately no fun, especially since before that I was getting my energy back up and loving food again. I'm not sure what the plan is after this. I think it's some more external radiation and possibly another internal radiation. Staying strong for my Barrett.

Thank you all so much for the support and prayers. I love you all. Thanks for continuing to help me during this battle.
