6 down, now time for a little R&R

I finished my last radiation treatment yesterday. Everything went well, afterwards I met with a pain and symptoms specialist to discuss how I was feeling. He prescribed me some medication to deal with the trouble I am having with my left arm. (As I type my left fingers have pins and needles)

I am officially having some R&R for the next couple weeks. Tomorrow morning Marcel and I are taking our trailer down to Mt. Vernon to stay with my friend Andrea and Andrew for the weekend. Then we come back and on Thursday my sister Darcie and I are heading to Whistler to go to the spa and an overnight trip. We are planning to go to the PNE on August 30th. Marcel and I are also taking a trip to San Francisco from Sept 4 -7 for his birthday weekend and before I start chemo.

Chemo is going to start the week of Sept 8th. Not really looking forward to it, not that anyone does. But it is even harder when you have been through it once already. These trips are going to be a great way for me to keep my mind off of it for a bit.

Cheers,
Liane
