(I wrote this on my way home last night in the car)
Im driving home and its about 8 at night. We just went over the river that is practcaully the border if illions and iowa. so we still have about 2 and half hours tell home. That makes it that we wont be home tell around 10. I havent even started typing my contrasting paper yet. So tonight when i get home im going to have to stay up really late and type this paper. The hospital that my grandpa was at was about a hour and half away from his house so i could never get to a computer to start my paper. So today was my grandpas final doctor appointment. The doctor said that cancer is rated on a scale 2 - 10 and 10 is being the worse and my grandpa as a 8. He has a couple different things he can do. The first choice is that he can have surgery but then he cant work for 6 weeks and has to wear depends for 6 weeks and just like a baby has to re learn how to control his kidneys. The second choice is to do radiation everyday for 6 weeks, but the bad part about that is that he has to travel about a hour and half to get to the right doctor. The third thing is that he can take this new medicine call "pepples" that just slows down the cancer. I dont like that one.. i think that we should fix the problem and stop it before it grows. So i told my grandpa that the third choice is just not happening.

Copying your posts onto the blog is just fine, Brittany. I hope that things are improving with your grandfather--I am glad to hear that there are some good treatment options available! Always remember that if you do run into scheduing troubles while working on a paper (or journals) let me know, and we will work something out. You have three of the four posts from this batch--keep up the good work!
