Thanks again everybody for your thoughts and prayers. He finished 6/10 treatments yesterday. His speech hasn't changed, and they don't expect that aspect to get back to normal until he is off the radiation for good. Luckily no other motor skills have been affected so far! He has 4 more sessions, then he has 2 weeks off. Then he is supposed to do 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off again. Or if this isn't working they'll try a new chemo therapy. We will know more next week after he finishes this round of radiation. While speaking is tough for him, laughing isn't. It feels so good hearing him laugh as whatever makes him laugh must be controlled in a different part of his brain than controls speaking! I'll keep you all posted as to what happens next week.
