well I have radiation ( for brain cancer for those that don't know ) till sept 2nd. that will be 7 weeks of treatment. So far so good as far as side effects. only issue is eating.. I lost 10# in 2 weeks and the doc said no more I told him I have extra to loose but  he said now is not the time.. so hopefully monday ( thats my doc day) . he will have some good news for me as far as weight loss goes..
 Usually ppl get to go home on weekends but I can't because I have a Rare brain cancer and my cancer doc is afraid ( for me) that if I had a issue the local hospital would have no idea what to do for me..
 theres the scoop for now

It is good to hear your spirits are somewhat on a high note.  I am so sorry you are going through this.  Are you going to be staying at U of M until September 2nd?  I may be able to stop in and see you once or twice when I am down in that area if you would like.  I have my doctor appointments in Ypsi and I am just a hop skip and a jump away from U of M.  As long as I am not pressed for time that is and the kids are behaving at home while I am out.  If you know what I mean.

I am happy that you are not having too many side effects.  That is always good news and I hope that continues for you.  You are in my thoughts and prayers... Just let me know if you ever want a visitor and I will do my best to come and see you.

 

HUGS,

I remember reading your post and have been wondering how you were doing.  I am sorry you are going through this.  You sound like you are staying positive and I am glad you are not having horrible side effects.  Your doctor is right, it is probably not the time to lose wiehgt as your body needs to stay healthy. 

My thoughts and prayers are with you!!
