Weekly Radiation Happenings

So Monday I go in for my Radiation Treatment. As usual, the technicians ask "How are you going?"
And I always tell them exactly how I am doing.

I showed them my left hand. That is the side where they removed the lymph nodes from my arm pit.
The top of my left hand is swollen, which happens occasionally.
But my fingers were swollen as well, especially my index finger.

The technician got the nurse, who came to look at it.
"Have you been lifting any heavy packages, Miss Grayson?"
"Have you been eating to much salt, Miss Grayson ?"
"Have you been using your hand to much, Miss Grayson?"
"Are you doing your exercises, Miss Grayson?"

Oh... give me a break. I organized my closet over the weekend, and I don't think thats causing it.
Personally, I think its the flippin' Radiation Treatment.
But, no ... According to them, everything is always my fault.

So the nurse said she needs to see it on Monday. And if its not better by then, we might have a problem.

If its not one thing its another.....

On a happy note ... I don't have to get any Radiation on the Thanksgiving holiday.
Thats four days off from work.
And four days off from Radiation Treatment !
Yeah !!!!
