    So so happy for you!!! Be careful of your skin~ when mine got itchy, my Dr wrote me a prescription for cortisone creme; he said the OTC brands wouldn't be strong enough.

    Half way to lining Life AFTER Treatment!!! YAY YAY YAY!!!

    Congrats! Be sure and ask your rads oncologist for something for the itching if you need it. Don't let it get too bad.


    Happy for you,

    Thank you all for the good
    Thank you all for the good wishes. I love the image of you all standing there at the end of the tunnel with your flashlights. And yes, I'm using my creams...aloe and Eucerin Daily Replenishing mulitple times a day, then a heavy load of Aquaphor over night. Chen, my doc mentioned the hydrocortisone for the itch, but didn't mention a scrip for it, I'll ask about it if the itch gets worse.

    Your encouragement means a great deal to me.

    Hugs,

    Linda

    Congrats Linda! Can't wait

    little chart
    Before I started my radiation (almost 3 yrs ago) I had chart to cross off daily...(2 charts) one how many days left and one how many days I completed....

    I saved them and put in scrap book...odd I KNOW but to me something worth scrapping..

    Happy you are almost through

    My husband had a calendar
    My husband had a calendar with how many I had, rather than how many I had left. I actually liked it better than saying how many I had left.
