Hello all. "Tuffenuff" just posted about ring the bell. Made me think it would be fun to see where we all rang or will ring our bell.
I rang my bell in Torrance CA on June 22, 2012
I did not get to ring a bell at radiation, but I did ring one at home and I ring it three times for everyone I hear about that completes radiation treatments. Ringing the bell makes our cat come to the door and the neighbors look.
There was no bell at the MSTI clinic??? and I never even heard of that until after my treatments were over (but I got on this site really good only after treatments, gosh durnit)... :)
However, I did finish my tx in downtown Boise, Idaho...at the MSTI Clinic (Mountain State Tumor Institute) ....they were a great bunch..
But they did have a 'graduation' of sorts with a diploma. I decided to add something to it and knowing they did a diploma, had a mortar board on hand complete with tassel and a pair of Mickey Mouse ears. Everyone at St. Peter's Cancer Center in Albany heard about it! I graduated July 5th, 2012.
Now if I could just start generating just a little saliva....
Congratulations to my fellow bell ringers and graduates, may we all soon post our NED!
My wife wanted to have a little fun so brought a cowbell on July 11, 2012 at the University of Minnesota Medical Center. Almost most one month out and getting better daily!

I didn't hear of it until I was done too. Did my Irish Jig dance qualify as a bell? Finished on April 3, 2012
