With the completion of today's radiation session, I have now completed 10 (two weeks worth of) sessions, and that means I only have 15 more to go. Radiation has been more tolerable than chemotherapy thus far. Other than skin darkening and fatigue, I have been doing pretty good. Making daily trips to the hospital is quite time consuming, but at least there's an end to look forward to.
It's so surreal to think that I've been in 'treatment' since August, and to think back on all the ER visits, the chemo sessions and the post surgery recovery...all these experiences are forever imprinted in my memory. I still have 3 weeks to go until I complete my 'active treatment'. As a cancer patient the journey never ends, I will be on Tamoxifen for the next 5 years and will continue to have regular tests and doctor's appointments for the rest of my life.
For now, it's nice to think back on what I have overcome, and try to look ahead and hope for the best.
