Finished with radiation...

Yay! Mom made it through her 7 weeks of radiation! It was really painful but her blistering has already started healing. Her PET scan is scheduled for June and now she can concentrate on the brain scan and learn more about what is going on. Mom's breast cancer surgeon, Dr. Gladding, referred her to Dr. Kumar, a brain surgeon, who she will meet with tomorrow. Dr. Gladding felt that it was important Mom was seen before her scheduled port-a-cath surgery Tuesday, so Dr. Kumar was able to fit her into the schedule. It will be up to Dr. Kumar if Mom should still go on with the scheduled surgery. She is very nervous to meet with him, but the waiting is hard too. Good luck Mom, we are all here for you.
