Radiation

Yesterday was the last day of chemical treatment, this being the end of my first cycle, three more to go! I started my first radiation today. Another reality check, as I now experience another aspect of this disease. Lying under this big machine, that accelerates particles though you, is quite a thing. You don't really feel anything, however the thought of this being done to you is daunting. The whole procedure is very quick.

Later in the week I was not feeling too good, very tired, a little nausea. And of course the hot weather we have been having is really bad. Especially if you're trying to recover. I fortunately only have to go for nine treatments...5 to go...
