The end is in sight- Only 5 days of radiation to go


As I approach the final week of the six week combined radiation and Chemo therapy, the patchy hair loss from the radiation is now obvious as you can see in the photo. I must say that this this hair loss gives me some comfort that the therapy is being effective at killing the fast growing cells. If the hair cells are dying, that makes me more hopeful that the tumour cells are also dying.

  1. Yes Laurie that does auger well for cell death. Hope that head is soon covered by a helmet more often anyway : )) Jenny
