    Yay Diane!!
    Congratulations on finishing!!

    LOL, my rad onc told me that I would heal in no time. When I saw him a couple of weeks ago, 6 months after finishing, I told him that it was still a bit tender in the radiated area. He grinned & said "oh, that will take a long time to heal". So I guess he was pulling my chain when he said it would be better in no time!

    It might take awhile to heal, so, be patient. That is probably why your rads oncologist just smiled. Be patient! Just be glad you are done!

    This probably sounds weird, but, I feel kind of lost now. I was so use to the routine of getting zapped everyday, that I kind of miss it. I miss the people, the techs', knowing I was doing something to fight bc. Help?
