It’s been a while since I last posted. I finished my last radiation treatment on Monday, September 16. By that time all my hair had fallen out and I am now officially bald. Hopefully it will start to come back in before the cold winter weather. Wednesday, September 18 I was cleared for chemo and had a treatment. Between the radiation, chemo and the bone injection I get every six weeks by the time Saturday came around I was exhausted. Good thing we were on our way to West Pam Beach for some much needed R & R. I was active up to a point but by late afternoon I was exhausted and spent the time reading or napping. Back home and still tired but pushing myself to keep going – just that Energizer Bunny (or for the older crowd a Timex Watch – takes a lickin’ and keep on tickin’). I have a CT Scan to check how the chemo has been working on the other areas next Tuesday. They won’t do a brain MRI for 3 months after the last radiation treatment. There is so much activity from the radiation going on in the brain (plus all that thinking) that they won’t get a good reading until it settles down. So it’s wait and see right now. Otherwise I feel good and am keeping busy. Sorry for the short version and I will post more as information becomes available. Keep those dancin’ shoes on! Keep on Dancin” Sorry this is all bunched together but I've having problems with this site and hope to resolve it by next posting.
