I'm home!

We pulled in around 3pm yesterday. Then we went for late lunch early dinner, had a short rest and then went out to see How to TRAIN Your Dragon in 3D. It was really cool.

Tomorrow I start the radiation process. I'll be making daily visits to the hospital for 5.5 weeks... (weekdays only). I guess cancer takes the weekends and stat holidays off...

I expect I will feel tired - that is what some radiation recipients have told me. I've also been told that my skin might get quite 'burned' like a bad sunburn - but it is cumulative, and also continues on after the radiation finishes for some weeks.... hmmmmm. After all that heals up, I will have reconstruction surgery but at this point I have no idea when that will be. I might know more after Wednesday when I meet with the plastic surgeon.

Back to the real world of hospital and discomfort.....

  1. Welcome Back Shana! I was in Montreal for my high school reunion - oh boy! it was fun though. How time flies. Bet you have been feeling the same now that you have had to come back to rainy reality of Vancouver. Julia
