So brain rads are under way...they're much like chest rads, except I don't even have to change into the gown. I go in, lay down, they clamp my face mask on, zap me right and then left, stop to apply cream, then I'm on my way...

The techs remember me from chest rads, sorry about the extra lap around the parking lot while we chatted...

I have a guided imagery about radiation I listen to before going. At one point, it talks about being surrounded with those who have ever had good positive thoughts for me...I picture all of you. Thank you.

Hugs,

Linda

    It must have been quite a sght in your imagery,
    with all of us smiling and looking at you, encouraging you to get through it. You were on my mind all day and I tried to get on this crazy site last night with no luck to check up on you. So glad it went smoothly and really grateful that there are others that went through it to help you with advice. Isn't that wonderful?! Priceless!

    I am happy that I was on board ... and finally
    finished my 'Mother in Law' potion. Be careful when using, it is very powerful.

    Happy to hear about your quick zip appointment.

    Sorry I missed the bus
    Sorry I missed the bus this time. I've been following your posts and wish you the very best with this treatment.Sounds like the treatment isn't to bad but prefer you didn't need it.

    Thoughts and Prayers to you.
