Hallelujah!
35 treatments have come and gone.
I’d like to say it was easy and went by fast. I mean, it kind of did go by fast. It seems like I just started. At the same time, throughout the last seven weeks, it got progressively harder.
Labor Day came at the perfect time during my treatment. My poor skin needed the break. I did, too.
I’m pretty sure that my standard answer when people ask how I’m doing is, “Good. Grumpy, but good.”
And, I am. I’m just worn out.
Can you believe it? I’m halfway done.
The great news – no major skin problems so far. Maybe it is the buckets of lotions I’ve slathered on multiple times a day? I’m on a rotation of Burt’s Bees, H2O Plus Milk Moisturizer, Miaderm and Aquaphor. (Special thanks to Debbie and my mom for being my suppliers for these!)
Week one of radiation has come to a close. Only six more to go.
You know what that means? Only four more weeks until OU’s first football game.

Today I got my CT scan in preparation for radiation. Basically, they do a CT scan to map out where all of the radiation beams (technical term!) should hit.
Meet my radiation oncologist.
