Setting the Stage for Treatment

In support of
Kendal Barbee

Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for joining Kendal’s support community here. Seeing the names pop up as you "Follow" the page has already been a huge boost to her spirits.

The Latest Update: Kendal is officially preparing to start her six-week course of daily proton radiation and chemotherapy. We are currently navigating the final "prep" appointments at Penn, and while it’s a lot to manage, we are grateful for the incredible team of doctors guiding her care.

What to Expect Here: We plan to use this space to share milestones, health updates, and specific needs as they arise. During treatment weeks, things can get a bit unpredictable, so checking here first is the best way to see how Kendal is doing and what the family might need in real-time.

Ways to Help Right Now:

Encouragement: Please feel free to leave a comment or a "heart" on these updates. Kendal reads them, and they truly help on the tougher days.
The Registry: If you’re looking for tangible ways to help, the "Support Registry" tab on this page has our Meal Train link for locals, as well as digital gift card options (UberEats/DoorDash) which are a lifesaver on long treatment days at the hospital.

We are taking this one day at a time, fueled by your incredible kindness. Thank you for walking this path with us.

With gratitude,

Dennis & Kendal

Praying with and for you guys!! This verse was given to me at a tough time and I wanted to give it to you. Love you both! "but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint" Is.40:31
