On this date, I had my second radiation treatment. This time, it only took about 5 minutes, but it sure did seem like a LONG 5 minutes! To give you an idea of how tight the radiation mask is, my husband could still see the grid marks from the mask engraved in my face, for about 3 hours after the treatment!
I also had my first chemo treatment on this date. Not only was it uneventful, but I actually enjoyed receiving it. As I watched the chemo dripping into my arm, I visualized how it was attacking and killing all the cancer cells.
My daughter, Kelli, has bought me a laptop so I can try to access the Internet from my hospital room. Unfortunately, no one at the hospital seems to know how to get it connected though. :(
My son-in-law, who is currently at sea serving in the United States Navy, called my hospital room at 3 am his time! Scott, I know you can't read this right now, but when you get home, I hope you'll realize how much that phone call meant to me!...And BTW, your precious baby son who you haven't had the opportunity to meet yet, is adorable! :)

Hi Trudi,
It is so great to see your post here. Thanks to Jill for providing the link from the NHL board. I had checked a few times, but before you updated it.
I am so glad you feel well enough to post. You know this cancer drill. I know you will beat this thing. I hope the chemo is making you feel better and you are starting to talk up a storm.
We are all sending you tons of prayers for an easy time in treatment and for this beast to be a gonner soon.
I know it is tough. Hang in there. We are all rooting for you. We are all here for your.
Judy
