I learned how to shave my head in the shower.
So far this doable and I'm done with week 4.
Radiation continues 5 day a week though I must admit that I have an icky rash on my right chest.
After 13 more treatments it will be something else I just hope it doesn't blister.
They have changed the angles of radiation so now my spine and spinal cord aren't
getting hit any more. It was getting kind of sore. My esophagus is going to bear the brunt
of the whole thing and is still involved even after changing angles of the beams.
I drink almost all of my calories now and I'm getting enough because I haven't lost any weight.
Luckily my mouth is ok it's just after I swallow it hurts. I have some stuff for this and will take it if necessary.
Chemo starts again on Monday for the whole week and the following Monday. Dana is coming to town for the week and that will be nice. Daughters are so nice to have around.
I had a Henna design done on my head today..it turned out great...I think there is a market
for this kind of thing...

Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear of your trauma. I just happened upon this blog from Dana's Facebook page the other day. You look GREAT, especially with your new henna! That's awesome! Keep up your good spirits and remember that I'm thinking about you.

I bet there is a market for henna do's, and you could definatly be the HEAD {lol} model. Honestly you look great!! I'm glad you able to maintain your weight too, not an easy thing to do with only liquid's. Good job Dana and her magic soup... As always your in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteLove, JSC
