The last two days have been spent getting all the stuff in place to start radiation. Yesterday I saw the doctor and he explained just how this would work for me and then today I had a CT scan and some little tattoo markers put into place. It wasn’t too bad just having to go through the unknown and not knowing what to expect is the hard part. With this phase complete they will start a plan for my treatment, so now I don’t have to go back until next Friday for more planning and then the treatments will start the following week. I will have thirty radiation treatments in all.
With that being said now I have an entire week without having to see a doctor, how cool is that! It seems like I have been in a doctor’s office for some reason or other for months. This is the break I have been waiting for, who would have thought that not having to go to the doctor would be such an exciting thing, crazy! So the weekend is here and I’m busy making plans for things I want to do, now let’s just hope I can find the energy to do all the stuff I have in my head. I’m sure going to try and what a bonus Monday is Valentine’s Day, one of my favorite holidays!
I’ve always wanted to learn how to live in the moment and now it just happens naturally, so I hope you too can have a happy weekend!
