Well, I guess they have finally come to their senses and can see the stickers and I just don't get along. They ripped one off today and marked me with a marker instead. I have cute X's all over my back like a treasure map. There is still another sticker that is need of some attention but OBVIOUSLY we take baby steps at this joint :-)!
The radiation tech is beginning to open up to me and I quite like her. I guess she has come to the realization that I will greet her with a "good morning" (even if it isn't) and leave her with "have a great day." She is beginning to treat me like more than a piece of meat and an actual human. She has 2 cute boxer dogs and has their pictures on the machine for the patients who are sunny side up. I am not but she showed me them yesterday anyway. They are cute and we struck up a great conversation.
My treatments are 4 times longer than they were last week. I am taking 20-30 minutes in the room. Today my hands fell asleep from being in the same position for so long. It made me chuckle. All the nuances that accompany radiation. All the peculiarities...I see to experience them all! Go figure!!
I finish this week tomorrow and look forward to a much needed rest. I have been very exhausted and with all of the kids activities this week, it has been trecherous!
I'll be in touch...
