Hi - it's Wednesday and just back from Treatment. Two more boosts to go and then I am done. I am definitely done to a crisp and this radiation is the gift that keeps on giving - it keeps burning after the fact and they tell me that 10 days after I am finished it will be at its worst. So things are pretty red and tender now, so I am expecting the worst. I am soaking with salt and water and have an antibiotic cream, but there isn't much you can do about it - they want me to sit with my arm up and keep the area clear and dry - right!!! lol Everyone keeps asking me if I need to go to the bathroom when I have my arm up like that!!
So pretty hard for me to do much when I am sitting around like that. Crazy!!
Met a woman this week who had her last appointment and is finally released from the hospital after 5 years of being cancer free. She was so pleased. I was celebrating with her and hopefully I will be there one day.
Well it is a lovely day - a bit of rain, but the sun is out again and everything is sooo green. I love this time of year.
Enjoy your day everyone.
Love Jeaninne
Today, Friday, May 11, is the very the last one ... thank you God!!! You have been the bravest breast cancer vixen ever and I am so inspired by your courage! You gave strength to every cancer patient you talked to at the hospital with your positive attitude, humour - a bit wacky at times but in a good wacky way - your smile and caring words. Maybe you can find a way to continue to help others going forward - you are so good at it! Now take time for you - celebrate the end of this phase and enjoy life once more!
