Cancer Radiation is
over! Today was the last of it. Yesterday and today, the radiation disk
holding the special glass made just for me was placed over my No Breast, almost
tight. Just like you would get right up
to someone’s face, nose to nose. My arm had
to be stretched even higher behind my head and I had to grab the bar, just for
each hand to grab. I could feel the radiation beams hitting my muscles in my No
Boob area. It did hurt. The procedure, once they set you up in your
radiation bed goes very fast. Maybe even
under three minutes. The rib cage under
just above my side is very tender, also my chest muscles. I did it!
That is the main thing! My
wellness journey continues. I have an
appointment with my surgeon next week to be scheduled in January 2013 to have
the other healthy breast removed. We all
know the cancer can return there. Also,
it is not comfortable in my clothes with one breast remaining. I do love the young girl feeling of no
bra. For me it is a sleek feeling. Dr. Hechtman said it would take about three
months for the red skin left from the radiation to go back to my normal skin
color. That is what clothes are
for! Cover up Baby! Hugs, phyllis 05/06/1933
