Happy Friday!
I completed 25 radiation treatments on Wednesday-hooray! The folks at Radiation Therapy were so great.
They gave me a "diploma" that read: Be it declared to all present that Christine L. Van Burgh having completed the prescribed course of Radiation Therapy with a high order of proficiency in the Science and Art of being cheerful, outstanding in high courage, tolerant, and determined in all orders given, IS THERFORE NOW ENTITLED to receive certification as an active member in our "Favorite Patient Club" subject to all rights, honors and privileges thereof.
Very sweet-and they all signed it-12 signatures. They also gave me an insulated coffee mug. I have been surrounded by such wonderful people.
I am reading a book called Cancer Fitness by Anna L. Schwartz. It is good-lots of good advice and information. Also comforting to read that things I have felt, symptoms, are probably related to the cancer and cancer treatment and not me being a lazy bum!
I have got to get more exercise-anybody out there want to be my walking/sit-up buddy?! I warn you, I am a bit noisy-wheeze, gasp! Amy Shelley and I have been walking every Wednesday at lunch-that has been great. We go look at gardens in town and get in a good visit. So, I can give you a reference!
I have been taking folic acid in preparation for the Alimta. You should see my finger nails! And, very cool news, I have hair and it is curly!
Have a great weekend.
Hugs,
Chris
