IT'S A LONG JOURNEY

Went to the hospital today to see my oncologist. I was told my Radio Therapy will be monday to friday for 5 weeks, followed by one week of a super dose. By which time I will be glowing in the dark (joke). All targetting my scar and my upper shoulder.

This will take place 3 weeks after my last chemo on 1st November 2006. I hope to be back at work part time at that stage.

I will have three little permanant tatoos to mark the location of the treatment. I shall have a super duper scan that will look at every detail of that part of my body.

My bloods were OK, but I do have a bit of a cold so it's back on the antibiotics. Any chest infection (which I am prone to) could see me in hospital and I don't want that. The staff at Queen Marys Sidcup are really very nice. I really can not speak more highly of the NHS.


Love Granny.
