Beginning the Last Leg of this Journey

Had my first radiation treatment on May 18, 2017.

The radiation part of my treatment is by far the easiest.  I go in, lie on a hard surface, get positioned and then get zapped a few times.  At most I expect some skin irritation but that probably will not be a problem until after I have had a few treatments.

I felt like an adult going in by myself for my second treatment today...drove and everything!  Came home to a delightful gift from Kaya.  She made me a paper chain that counts down the days to the end of radiation.  I decided rather than cut off each link I will tie a ribbon on it...I could not find any pink ribbon so a made do with pearly pink/white!
