Hi ladies, I just got the phone call so I'm off to start my rad treatment next Wednesday so I'll be living with my sister for the next 4 weeks & coming home on weekends. It will be nice to get it all happening now after the long wait in between waiting for my gene test results. I have to see the rad onc first at one location & then go to the hospital where i will have the treatment. I have an orientation with the nurse for around 1 1/2 hrs & then will have my treatment so it will be a busy day!! I had a visit this morning from my McGrath Nurse which was lovely. First time we have met as it's been emails & phone calls till now as she lives over an hour away....the joys of living in the country! Better start packing for my "holiday" in the city!! Hugs to you all xx
