Welcome

My family set up this site so that everyone can easily keep track of my progress. I and my family are so grateful that so many people are concerned. Rather than me trying to keep up with all of the questions via email we set up this site so all can post questions and someone can answer as quickly as possible. Thank you all for caring.

Do a Dance - I'm past the half way mark!!!!

Do a little dance, I'm past the half way mark for radiation. 17 down and 16 to go. I saw Dr. Dorn today. He checked my skin and said I was doing great. He did remind me the radiation is accumulative and it will get worse but following instructions and applying that lotion every day at least 3 times a day is helping to save my skin. I am a little pink now, pinker than I was last Friday so it will get worse but I'm just mildly irritated today.

My neck feels a little better today. The stretching and strength exercises, physical therapy and slowly increasing my activity level seems to be working. As I increase my activity level my attitude improves as well. I am a little fatigued and unmotivated in the evenings, but nothing major yet. It is helping so much to know that people are bringing me healthy meals twice a week. Otherwise some evenings dinner would probably be crackers and cottage cheese or apple and crackers or something. I just don't have much left after I get home from work.

Thank you, thank you to everyone that is supporting me through all this and DO A DANCE. It'll be over soon.

    Do you remember the Macho Ladies Dance that we made up with Kristin & Brooke? Kinda went to the tune of Macho Man (but much, much better). There are several other I could demonstrate to you in celebration. A lot of wiggling of the bottom, a lot of banging head motion (which you can't do because of your injuries, but I can Head Bang for you) and a lot of intricate, dazzling, Fred Astairish foot action . . . . with boa feathers!!!! I am so proud of you. You are Awesome . . . hence my Electric Slidey, Bottom Wiggley, Southern Twisty, Sexy Ladyish, Cancer Crushing Dance Dance, DANCE!!!! Follow my feet everybody!!!!!!!!!
