Radiation ends!

Well, waited a little extra time to post this since this is a sort of switch-over period. That last radiation treatment must have been a doozy. The Dr. did reduce my steroids again to just once a day, part of the weaning he had described. Today, though, has been a blur. Slept in til nearly 8, ate & took my plethora of pills, then pretty much stayed in my recliner and slept or deep-rested til lunch, more of the same this afternoon. I guess it's the sleep, but I've been a bit off the deep end a couple of times today, apparently goofing up our phone number, etc.

Still have my hair, but last night it started coming loose a few strands at a time, won't be surprised if that continues.

Hip has started to feel sore again, Dr. thought that would be normal, it's still controllable with just Tylenol.

Have to watch the timing of the Nexavar, can't take with food (dilutes its effectiveness) so it has to be an hour before or 2 hrs. after eating. I take 2 tablets, twice a day.

No medical meetings for a while (we do intend to check in with the Oncologist as soon as we get our questions lined up).

Meanwhile we continue to appreciate all the prayers, e-mails, best wishes, cards, calls, etc. Keep it up, please.
