I hope everyone had a safe and Happy 4th of July
Today was another day at the doctors office. I finally have some good news and things are starting to roll along. Dena tried to meet me at the Radiation office but made it after I already got in to the simulation room. Today I met with Dr. Kosiak and he explained that I was on the lung cancer (No I don't have lung cancer) case study last week. And the doctors and specialist decided it was best for me to start radiation and not to have any more chemo. The discusion was basically because they can't come up with any reason why I have a cough besides the chemo. Let's just say I have been almost celebrating that I won't have any more chemo. Two more months of chemo wasn't in my plans.
I got my permanent markings (tattoos) today and schedule for my radiation. I also had another CT Scan, this time to check out my markings. I will start radiation on Thursday July 9th at 3:20. I will go every day (Monday-Friday) at the same time for 20 days, meeting with Dr. Kosiak on Wednesdays before radiation.
Have a great week
Anna

It is very exciting that you finally have the rest of your treatment plan. Hopefully the side effects of radiation are easier to deal with than chemo was. Have a good rest of the week before Thursday afternoon!

Hi, Anna-
Sure hope all goes well starting tomorrow with your new treatment plan. You're such a trooper - I don't know if I could be so strong and positive as you've been. It means a lot for recovery and I know you will get through this trial and be healthy and strong again. Thoughts & prayers!!!
