Recovery Road

I finished my last treatment today - boy, am I glad! I haven't been feeling well lately, in fact the last 2 nights I've been throwing up. They actually gave me a little diploma for finishing. The doctor I spoke to today informed me that the next 2-3 weeks I'll be feeling worse. It apparently takes 7-8 days after a treatment before you start to feel the effects of it. So it is what it is - I have to see how I feel. The radiation is done and it's just going to take its course. I can't eat anything now, I'm strictly on canned supplements through the PEG tube. Talking is extremely difficult and painful if I talk too much. But I'm on the road to recovery, so mentally I feel pretty good.
