Update

I finished radiation today so now I'll be glowing at both ends - Lol! (Sorry the text isn't larger - don't know where that feature went). This radiation experience was so much better (if that's possible) than previous radiation, but then again first radiation was in a different area. The staff was wonderful. I received a certificate and a tshirt plus I got to ring the bell. As far as the radiation side effect - breast area turned red, but it's already healing. Since one of my sisters went through this, she recommended using emu oil and maybe that's what I should have used on my rear end 5 years ago. I think I've had enough radiation to last me 100 years! I have a follow up appointment with radiation oncologist in 3 months and I won't mind doing follow ups with him. I see my medical oncologist Wednesday. He's going to prescribe Tamoxifen and I guess the benefits outweigh the risks. So "journey" number 2 is well underway...
