radiation started

Hi all...just wanted to touch base a little with you...i have had 2 (out of maybe only 10 after all) whole brain radiation treatments..feeling ok. Drifted in & out of sleep a LOT this afternoon. We're just going to see day to day how i am feeling, whether i go and stay in the unit Steve is at. He is heading home (bout 2.5 hrs away) tomorrow and will return with the kids on Friday afternoon (teachers are writing reports on th fri b4 a public holiday apparently!) I have another buddy covering the 'shift change" for wed evening/thurs.  So apart from fatigue so far not much to report, only that i hope this stays and doesn't get worse..can't do much but let the rays do their thing and the body rest and recover.

Couldn't do any of this without my wonderful family, friends and of course all of you wonderful pals   xxx

    Hi Sam - thanks for the update. Glad to read that you were able to sleep and fingers crossed that the remainder of the treatment isn't too tough for you.  A day at a time hey. Thinking of you and sending you lots of positive thoughts.  x
