    It is a wonderful feeling of accomplishment, of pure joy! Celebrate. So, what color are you considering?

    As you end this chapter in
    As you end this chapter in your journey ... I am beginning my radiation treatments on Wednesday. Actually, I think I am getting "marked" on Wednesday .... a little info on what to expect???? Cannot color your hair during radiation treatments? Anything else you can't do? I am so happy for you as you move on with your life. We are stronger people from this experience and I get "hope" from this website on a daily basis! Lots of hugs to all my "sisters"!

    hurray
    See, I'm beginning to understand what being done with rads must feel like. I've got 12 done out of 35. It's not horrible, but it will be nice to be done.

    It's so encouraging to read posts like yours that say yippee, I'm done.

    I'm very happy for you. Go enjoy and live a lovely life.

    I only have 7 left...
    WHEW what a long haul!!! But not as bad as I thought it would be. Hang in there Victoria!
    We'll be cheering you on! I just found out that the last 4 will be focused on my scar only, so that's good news since that area is NUMB and has no burning.

    Let us know how you're doing and how long it takes to heal, please.
