Oraletta's Adventure

Being a member of the Family of God, which is both local and global; I would like to share specific issues about the adventure The Lord and I are on dealing with lung cancer. I want to do this so that those who are praying for me will be better informed.

Radiation Therapy

This morning my Darling Daughter (Yvonne), and I arrived at the Cleveland Clinic main campus at 7:30am. We registered into the Radiation Dept. My name was called at 7:45am. She and I together were escorted to a room. We saw Dr. Videtic (Radiologist Oncologist), his assistant, and Nurses, and technicians.
We were throughly educated today on radiation therapy.
I will go back again on Monday for more of the same and some new.
On this Friday, June 23 I will go to Cleveland Clinic to see Dr. Raghavan (the chemo specialist).

I WILL START THERAPY ON WED. (June,28th.). I WILL HAVE BOTH RADIATION & CHEMO THERAPY.
YES, I WILL HAVE THEM BOTH AT THE SAME TIME.

The radiation will be apprx. 6 to 6 1/2 weeks (depending). It will be done Mon. thru Fri. at the Cleveland Clinic main campus. At the present time I do not need transportation, however I will ask as the need arrives.

As of today I do not have my schedule for chemo treatments as I have not seem Dr. Raghavan yet.

Well Loved One, I think that is enough info for now. We will appreciate your continued prayers for us. I must say the care at Cleveland Clinic for their cancer patients is excellent, and very complete.
In closing may I share my feelings with you.

"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." (Rom. 12:12)
May the Good Shepherd continue to watch over each and everyone of you.

In His Love,

Oraletta (for us both)

    Dear, dear, Oraletta,

    Your peaceful mindset of trusting in our Lord is a great encouragement to those of us who know and love both you and Roosevelt. Naturally, that prompts us to be all the more fervent in our prayers for you and all the lives being touched by your adventure.
    You can count on me to provide transportation for your treatments when needed.
    Prayers and love,
    Carole
