First radiation treatment

Before radiation today I met with friends from my hometown, Hillsdale, Michigan.
Karen and Lynn Morningstar, and Kay Walper. We had a good time talking about the "good old days"........ Oh, to be young again with the comfort and protection of loving parents and friends. In a couple of weeks I will return to Hillsdale for my 50th high school class reunion. We will enjoy reliving our schools days and catching up on our children and grand children.

After our 2 1/2 hour lunch, Kay and I headed to St.Joes Hospital for my first radiation treatment. I was there for 45 minutes but only about 15 minutes getting into position and receiving radiation.... I only sensed the machine revolving around me, getting into 4 different positions..... It was painless. The radiation effects build up as time goes by, I will expect to feel some "sunburning" reactions as time goes by. I repeat this same routine 27 more times. Martha
