Okay, so I went to my sister's house and looked at her camera. It's not like the one I'm using to shoot the documentary, it's like the one that we used to have. Right then. Home to call JVC...
There is a repair shop in Warwick, RI that I can bring the camera to. I'll try to get it there on Friday. In the meantime, my sinus infection has recurred (which, apparently, is something that happened to a lot of people because of high pollen counts surrounding us of late) and I'm out of work through tomorrow for that. After two days, I've finally gotten the energy (barely) to come in here and sit in front of the idiot box to check my mail & post some updates.
On another front, for those of my readers who have been keeping in touch with me regarding my father's lung cancer recurrence, I have good news. They will be able to treat his cancer and he will start treatment next week. The team is confident that they can knock it out with this new procedure called Stereostatic Body Radiosurgery. I know this has nothing to do with the film, but if you know anyone who has early-stage lung cancer and is seeking treatment, please let them know about this option. It is highly successful and does minimal damage.
Stereotactic Body Radiosurgery Lung Cancer Treatment top
Stereotactic body radiosurgery(SBR) is a novel lung cancer treatment. SBR lung cancer treatment is not surgery at all. SBR lung cancer treatment is an outpatient procedure that requires three visits to the radiation oncology department. SBR is painless and patients can continue their daily activities without difficulty. SBR utilizes multiple tightly conformed radiation beams converging at the lung tumor. A specially designed body frame immobilizes the patient and decreases the movement of the lung tumor due to breathing. With this technology, very little lung receives radiation. The low volume of lung exposed to radiation allows very high doses to be given to the lung tumor leading to cure rates comparable to surgery. Because of the low volume lung exposure SBR has a low risk of long term lung complications in the treatment of lung cancer.SBR is a promising new technology for stage one lung cancer. Lung cancer surgery remains the gold standard. SBR is usually used for patients who could not tolerate lung cancer surgery or would rather not have the lung cancer surgery. To speak with a Dr. Robert Woodburn about SBR lung cancer treatment or request more information call 219-945-1050 or email rwctg@comcast.net.To learn more about Cancer Treatment Group and the technology at Methodist Hospital Cancer Center vist the web site, Cancer Treatment Group
Be well & stay safe, everyone - and thanks so much from myself and my family for your support.
