My timeline
Today specialist advised chemo/radiation - I feel like I am in a dream, is this really happening to me?
I remember saying the exact same thing a few months ago. I was diagnosed last October, had surgery in November, started chemo in December and started radiation in March. At the beginning it felt like so much and I wondered if I could ever get through it. Now I only have 4 sessions or radiation to go but still have to have targeted therapy until next January. You'll be surprised at the end of your treatment just how fast the time went. Once treatment starts you'll get settled into a routine. It's not easy, there'll definitely be ups and definitely be downs, but it is manageable. As I come to the end of radiation I am learning to have a new appreciation of the word 'survivor'. Hang in there
Take care, Nadine
