October 7.............I've had a cat scan, a visit with the radiation oncologist, a MRI done in great detail of my pelvic area. The cancer appears to be limited to one area in the rectum/anal area. Meeting with radiology on Tuesday to prep for a series of thirty radiation treatments. There will also be chemotherapy given first and last weeks of radiation treatment. My docs are all encouraging, but I am not feeling it. I don't think it's the cancer so much as these difficult times we are living in.
October 13........Most mornings I wake up in a state of panic and dread. It's very strange, as I have no memory of dreams or nightmares. Today I have appointments with radiology and chemo to map out a treatment plan. Part of me is just annoyed at the whole thing; part of me is hopeful, part of me just says, 'Why bother in these times we live in.' Part of me wants to curl up in a ball and hide under the covers.
Once I am out of bed, make tea, feed the birds I begin to feel much better. I am registered for my mail in ballot. But of course I will check several times to make sure this is true.
As always, thanks for stopping by.............*s*
