I finished up my five and a half weeks of radiation on September 3rd what coincidentally (or maybe not coincidence at all) would have been my husband's 76th birthday. The treatment was brutal; well the effects of the treatment were brutal. Its been two weeks and I'm just starting to get some energy back and feel human again. I decided to take a couple of weeks off before I start the 4 once a week boost treatments. I'm calling this my "scorched earth" protocol; my own personal Hiroshima. The doctor and the techs assure me this next part is nothing like what I've been through so far. I'm hoping that they're right. I'm so ready to put this all behind me.
On a lighter note, the weather here in Maryland has been beautiful for most of this week, very autumnal. Its my favorite time of year.
Today I'm going to go visit my Mom and tomorrow I'm planning on making some butternut squash soup and baking some bread.
Enjoy your Saturday.
