A "Real" Day

Today was a big day. First day of a combination of Chemo and Radiation treatments. These are long days. The chemo is in the morning, once a week, and takes about 3-4 hours total. Longer every other week with a visit with the chemo doc.

Radiation is 5 days a week, in the afternoon at the same time everyday. With seeing the Radiation doc once a week. Luckily, this treatment only takes about 10 minutes in and out the door.

So on Fridays, when the treatments coincide, it makes for a very long tiring day. And from what I hear, the day of chemo isnt so bad, its over the next few days that you really feel like crap. Last week was a testament to that, but we shall see this week. Here's to hoping drinking over a gallon of water today does the trick! (It sounds like a lot, but really, my mouth is little dry already and Im still thirsty.) Im feeling pretty well tonight so it's looking good so far...
