1/2 done with whole brain rads, baby granddaughter upate

So today was #8 of 15 total brain rads, going by fast. Tired of not being able to drive at all, feel like the driving Miss Daisy movie. Down to 8 mg steroids so not so hungry, less reflux, hoping for more sleep, but this was 1st day of reduced dose. I am not a 4 hr sleep per night gal....like my 6 to 7. Feeling like I am taking the bull by the horns and doing all I can to squash this rat-****, so trying to stay focused and positive while not missing anything, feeling pretty good. Expect to spend more time online researching all this to keep getting my head around it but havent gotten there yet, will have more time once daily rads are, over on the 13th, in that 3 - 4 week cooling off (still cooking) period before next MRI

Also working 3 hours per day and will be wheedling for more next week when I see RO. Can't sit in a corner and turn to a puddle, though sometimes that does sound appealing. See MO tomorrow to verify info and rant, then going out shopping for a cute top to wear in a photo session on Friday before my hair falls out again. Just want a current pick of me an 1 with my JC (think morbid glamour shot) Want that pick airbrushed to the MY GOD SHE LOOKS SO FANTASTIC, is that really her, stage? Once baby gets here we will do a more extensive session with my daughter's family and my hubby and try to get the whole famdamily in the summer which will be more challenging, 5 kids, 4 inlaws 13 grandkids, 1 grandkid spouse and of course my olllllllld coot hubby and me, WHEW! That will probably take lots of planning....all are in Kansas except 3 in Vegas......we are starting to plan a whole family besch trip in July so hopefully can do it then if not before.

MOST EXCITING NEWS: Daughter went for check up this afternoon...dilated to 3 1/2 or 4, bp, sugar, etc all good. Baby still a little too high but we alll know that can change in a nanosecond, also said walk, eliptycal machine, etc. Her own doctor is on call this wknd, the full moon is Friday (that helps bring them) but if she doesn't go on her own by Tuesday he will see her and if she is 4 1/2 or 5 he will give her the choice to have her water broken and have that baby then!!! 2 year old JC shares his bday with my sister-in-law, Tuesday 1/10 is my hubby's daughter-in-law's bday.

SORRY for the novel, and the giddy tone, but hey, I'm on steroids,and can NOT wait to get my hands on this girly, LOL

Wishing you all well... good test results, easy mammos, no scary tests required, and something every day that makes you chuckle.

Today is a good day, we shall see what tomorrow brings
