Update...

3rd week of radiation and everything is going good. The bad thing is that Mom gets migraines from the treatments. She has never had headaches this bad, so it is taking time to get used to them. They start after treatment, last all day and keep her up at night. Luckily, you are almost halfway through Mom. Radiation has also made her right breast very sore and sometimes she has sharp pains. According to the doctor, these are normal side effects. Other than that, Mom is staying strong. She is geting tired of wearing the wig all of the time, but her hair is slowly growing back! She has her eyebrows and eyelashes back too! So that's exciting!

It's great to hear that things are going well for you Jacque. I get horrible headaches all the time, so I feel you on that one. I hope that you start to feel much better soon. How funny is this? I had a dream of you last night. You were at my house and you were in great spirits! You were even working out. You looked BEAUTIFUL in my dream, but as we all know you looking beautiful isn't a dream. Love and Blessings! Sylvia Ramos-Simental
