Black Cats....

They have such a bad reputation, but when I adopted mine he seemed so innocent. Boy was I wrong. He is such a brat! He insists on sleeping on my feet at night. At 7:30 this morning he insisted that I get up to feed him. So I did and cleaned out the litter box while I was up. He waited until I was back in bed, watching the news when he decided to use the nice clean litter box and stunk up the entire house!

Anyway, work was good this week. Daniel came with me yesterday and spent hours shredding pappers. He loved it. We had a nice lunch together and left by three. Radiation was cancelled, they said the machine was broken, I think they wanted out early like the rest of us.

I have ten sessions left and they managed to find someone in their office who had not seen my right breast. They other day I am laying on the table, waiting for them to lower me because the session was finished. I don't know why they have to raise me four feet off the ground. Maybe they want people to break a leg so you don't remember that your skin is peeling off from the radiation. Oops I digressed, so.... I am laying there and I hear this new voice, it is Andrew, and he is going to help me off the table. I think he is a therapist. But I thought the other guy was a therapist until I saw him picking up the used gowns in the locker room! I can't wait for this to be over!

Back on Track

All is good I am allowed to go for radiation again. I have completed 21 of 33 so I should be done soon if all goes well. I am sitting here at work eating my salad. It is funny I crave healthy foods these days! Also, it is so weird, I do not feel like I was gone for six months! Time flies when you are home sleeping.

Oh well, got to go...just wanted to send a quick update to my faithful followers. Love ya!

Enjoying the Quiet

It's Sunday morning and both Dan and Joe are asleep. There are no TV's or anything else on. I like it that way. We did not do much this weekend. Dan came home from school early and went to the doctor to discover he has strep throat. He hung out all day yesterday and watched the military channel. I did get to play Taxi driver for Joe. In between driving him I did laundry and slept. I was very tired. I am hoping that it is from the routine of working and not radiation. They say that it can make people extremely fatigued. That is all I need. I think I slept enough this winter.

As for radiation I did not have it since Monday. My skin was very irritated and had blistered in one spot. They gave me some cream, which is staining my clothes, and told me to take off until Thursday. When I went in the doctor said it did not look good and I needed to be off until Monday. So here I am stuck at day 19. I feel much better today, just under my arm hurts.

I just want to wake up one morning and not think about cancer! Which reminds me, last night went I went to pick up Joe, I was wearing my new black F Cancer hat. Of course he comes over to the car with three friends. They loved it! I had to get a new one because I have worn the pink one so much it is wearing out.

My hair is coming in good. It is funny because it is mostly grey and black. All this time I thought I was a natural red head with lots of blond highlights. Mom thinks I should go all blond.

Got to go my quiet time is over! There are helpless boys asking me to make them eggs! Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.
