@Molly71 - you've done SO WELL up til now - and the finish line is almost within sight ..... so WELL DONE YOU! xx
I had a lumpectomy & Rads & Tabs - in 2 weeks it will be my 5 year anniversary of the surgery ..... so far, so good.
At the end of my Rads, I was strangely upset on the last session, as I'd grown reliant on their company over the previous month of treatments Mon-Fri .... so be prepared for a possible feeling of 'grief/loss' as it came out of nowhere for me! .... I wonder if you get to ring the bell to 'sign off' on the Rads? My mob don't have the bell!
As the girls have said, keep busy doing things you love, or take up a new hobby .... also keep up your Rads moisturising for the next 4-8 weeks as well after your last session, as it continues to 'cook' for a while after - the Rads site will actually remain quite warm as well for 2 weeks plus too.
Congratulations on almost completing your Active Treatment - just 2 weeks to go ....
You may not be aware that you can also then look into Otis Foundation for a little holiday/getaway with family/friends during the year as a 'I've finished my active treatment' getaway/celebration ..... http://www.otisfoundation.org.au/directory
Take care, be kind to yourself & have a wonderful 2023 xx
