Radiation Therapy Completed


On Friday I finally had radiation dose number 30, the final one which completed the total dose of 160 Gray of X-ray radiation exposure. In the photo you can see my positioning mask tucked under my arm. It all went remarkably well apart from a few episodes when I ran out of the anti-nausea drug zofran. I now have a one month rest from the chemo therapy and I am really looking forward to that.

    Well done Laurie. It must be a relief to be able to put all that behind you. You haven't even lost all your hair! (Well, maybe a little bit.)
