Friday Nite

Going to dinner with the girls tonight and then on to beading. I am feeling much better this Friday. It could be the fresh peach slices and blueberries I ate today.

While receiving radiation treatment today I wondered if I should be using some kind of positive imagery of radiation doing its job. I kind of drew a blank on what that image would be. I have been told that the radiation treats areas that have less blood flow and are therefore less susceptible to chemo drugs. I have been clearing my mind and breathing to aid holding "the position" for treatment. My poor arthritic neck and shoulders don't like it at all. I have to hold it for about 18 minutes while the various treatments are applied and the techs use sharpies to draw dotted lines on my skin.


I guess I will talk to the techs and see if they have any visual images that represent the radiation.
