and doing well. I've noticed a bit of fatigue and keep putting cream on my mastectomy scar and surrounding skin. The weather has been creating havoc with schedules. My cancer center will be closed tomorrow because we are going to have an ice storm. They're going to open Sunday to make up for it. My rad onc, nurse and techs are all great. I'm looking forward to ringing the bell. I should be done by mid February if Mother Nature cooperates.

    So happy for you. I was soooo lucky when I had rads, I never burned. Got a little pink but nothing else. Hoping the same for you.

    Hopefully the weather will co-operate and you will be able to finish on time.

    Good to hear, Char
    Keep slathering on that cream--helped me tremendously. I only got a little "sunburned."

    Good luck with the remainder.

    Hugs, Renee

    Good for you!
    You are now on the downhill side. You will be finished before you know it. I hope the bad weather doesn't hold you up too much. Be careful if you do have to go out in it.

    Hugs,
