Radiation 1-7

I thought i would give you all a very quick update since I have started and completed 7 of 25 radiation treatments. 

Well so far so good, the actual treatment is at the most 7 minutes long, the arms get tired of being in the same position and of course everything itches when you cannot move. The machine rotates around me and shoots out the radiation to my breast, underarm and neck areas. 

My skin is now starting to get a little red and itches, like a very mild sunburn, the key is to keep the skin extremely hydrated, there is not too much fatigue. It's a pain in the but that I have to go everyday to the hospital, but it's almost over. This seems to be a breeze as compared to chemotherapy, would never want to go through that again. 

I will continue to keep you posted.....

Love you all..
Franca
