I made it!! Yesterday was my 25th and final radiation treatment! Now it is the waiting game! The hope is that I stay the same or improve over the next six weeks. Then I will have an MRI to see what the radiation has done. Again, I appreciate my friends more than I can say! Thursday, Kath had reached her limit! I was concerned that she could not drive safely to the hospital. While I was worrying about what to do, I received an e-mail from Lynne Lindsay offering to drive any day!! It was a gift! So she drove me Friday and Barry stepped in and drove me Tuesday! My friends have been such a blessing to us!! Then I can not say enough about the people who work at OHSU! I will not miss traveling each day to OHSU, but I will miss the people that work there. They make a very stressful situation much easier to tolerate. I will let you know how I am feeling over the next few weeks. We meet with Dr. Hung in two weeks. The only problem that I am having currently is a cough that is irritating. When I cough, it causes pain to shoot through my left leg that hits a 10 on the pain scale! Hopefully this will be taken care of by the meds I am on. Kath gives me my medicine every eight hours. I do not know how she does it! I take around 20 to 25 pills a day! She just smiles and asks me if I would like to take the pills with water or chocolate milk! I can not even begin to imagine trying to get through this without her!!
