Thank you everyone for the posts. I am off for my breathing tutorial tomorrow and the planning meeting Wednesday afternoon. I think I am booked to start February 3, I'll find out on Wednesday. After chemo, mastectomy I thought I was handling things well but the radiologist freaked me out a bit with all the possible effects. I did calm down when I realised just how far I have already come. I still have five weeks five days a week radiation then five years of medication but so far so good. The radiologise suggested I go public because there is more flexibility with appointment times. I did ask about dollars but when she suggested public I just went with that. I am going back to work tomorrow Wednesday and Thursday, just to the professional development days, just for a couple of hours, to see how I go. I need to reconnect with school because I am going stir crazy a home and that thought of not going back this term is such a downer. I hope to be able to have my radiation in the afternoons. There is a replacement for me a school so I will just buddy teach when I am there and perhaps pick up some cover lessons for absent teachers. Number 1 priority is not to over do it, the transition back to work must be nice and slow, smooth and successful - mentally and emotionally I need that. I will just take it as it comes because as we have all discovered this is a unique experience for each one of us.
