Follow-up to Ending Radiations

First thanks to all of you for your posts and kind words. I cried when I read them. Here's the outcome to my radiation dilemma. I ended up in the hospital for the 4 last days. I spiked a fever so went to the ER and was admitted. I ended up on IV antibiotics for sepsis, bowel enteritis and a UTI. I also received two units of blood and a ton of fluids and potassium. I liked those fluids right away. I guess I had had enough radiation. I'm home now, still in misery with the diarrhea and all the sores to go with it. (BTW I do the 20 times a day small BMs sometimes too.), yet in better shape to begin the healing process from the radiation. So that is the good news. I missed those last two treatments and in a healing pattern. I'm looking forward to this break from treatments while I focus on good health to prepare me for a successful surgery.
Thanks again for the support.
In balance and light.
