Almost there

Today is a milestone of sorts, the last day of full breast radiation. Just as well. That poor boob is well and truly roasted, but, thanks to all the melanin in my normal skin (I think) and careful soaking in the appropriate creams (most probably), the skin has held, even though it is mostly the colour of roasted coffee beans. I know, sunlovers in Europe would kill for suntan like that, but I would not recommend this way of doing it!

How do I feel? Elated, when I am not tired. At this moment I am very tired and will go and veg out in front of the telly after I finished this blog. In general, however, I feel.... actually I feel thankful that I've gone through this experience with the support I had and not being too depressed about the whole thing. It's amazing really, but I just feel like getting back into life and forgetting about the whole thing.

Well, I don't think I can forget about it, because I don't think I'll ever be able to sunbathe, or wim outdoors without full body cover and I won't be able to carry things with my right arm, so I'll have permanent reminders of what has been, but like I said to someone today, I won't be brooding about the cancer coming back, or things like that. I just want to get back into life and live it.

And, by the way, after I see the Prof at the end of this month, I think I'll close this blog. Let me know if you still want me to continue. I'll think about it. Now, where's that remote control?
