I finished radiation a day early, on Monday with mostly no ill effects--just some blistering on the front and back. Otherwise, it's all good. I can finally get some of my life back. As of yet, I'm waiting to hear from the oncologist what the follow-up plan is.
My hair is growing back slowly. It's shorter on top than on the sides. If I had been smart, I would have done what a lot of hairless cancer patients have done when treatment is finished--shave my head. That way, when the hair comes in, it's all at the same rate. Anyway, with about 1/4" long hair on top, I won't be having to make decisions any time soon as to whether to put my hair in a pony tail or braids.
I'm feeling great!
We are planning our summer trip in July: Denver, Rocky Mountain National Park, Arches National Park, Grand Tetons National Park for a start. I am psyched!
