Beating Cancer

Apr 20, 2012 15:51

I hope to come back and write more about the past six months, next week - when I am taking a week off to recuperate from everything. In the meantime, here is a picture we took today at my LAST radiation therapy session. Every Monday through Friday for six weeks. Today, it seems to have gone by quickly. But really, it's been hard, on both of us. So much amazing support, though. I'll tell you more about that next week. In the meantime, a picture!

Me with the radiation therapy tech guys (everyone who works at the Hospital of the Univ. of Penn system wears color coded uniforms. Nurses wear navy blue, techs wear brown, nurse assistants wear maroon, cleaning crew wears teal, doctors & residents wear the white coats, and the receptionist folks wear blue shirts and black pants). I am laying on the radiation machine. They would  not let me lay in the machine the way they actually do the radiation (i.e., topless) and said that I was the only person ever to ask them to take a picture that way. :-)
