I saw two patients today ring the bell. It was nice. They finished their treatment at the Radiation Center. Such happy faces on them. Everyone in the lobby clapped and cheered. The staff rallied around them during their momentous occasion. There were going to be 6 total today.
I can’t wait til I can ring the bell I never knew I would need to. Only 8 more now! I saw my senior friend today at treatment. I asked how he was and how many more treatments he had left. He has 25 to go. I have 8. I told him it would fly by. They took him back and the couple was gone when I was done. Then it was my turn. I go back. You know the routine. Get snapped in. Shut my eyes and off to zapping land. It as quick. I heard the buzz and knew I only had about 90 seconds left. All done. Then I met with my Radiation Oncologist. I asked about how the chemo would continue after radiation was done and he said it was more of a question for my medical oncologist, other Dr P.
My nurses were so happy with my progress and said small wins are big wins. Vision is back, they loved that. No real side effects other than fatigue. She loved it. Big win, small win. WIN WIN! We talked about my cats and the doc then came in.
All in all it has been a good day. I treated myself to a toasted Asiago Bagel today with some honey pecan cheam creems. That is so funny to me, cheam creems. I love nobodycaresanthony.
Thank you for stopping by!
