I was so relived to finally leave the hospital! Looking back now, it doesn't seem that long OR that bad, however, I don't want to go back and do it all over again. :)
I think it was hard because I was so confined and really confused most of the time.
We had a couple of weeks "off" then it was back to the doc's office we go. I was scheduled for radiation during the week for about 15 minutes a day. That part of the whole experience was super easy. They would bring up to the back, strap my face down (literally) - so I wouldn't move - then give me some radiation for no more than 15 minutes.
This continued for 6 weeks ...
During this time, we would go to museums, movies, parks - anything we would think of doing and could find. Birmingham is really, REALLY nice and large - so we always found stuff to do. We never ran out of things to do, places to go - in fact, we ran out of time. 6 weeks flew by.
On the weekends we would go home and spend the days enjoying the sun and the water.
This was a tough time - BUT I made it!! Special thanks to my folks for helping me through each step. It was a daily battle and well worth every second. I love you!!
