I have noticed that my chest is beginning to look a bit red and is slightly sore to the touch. Not badly and not enough to mention to any nurses etc, but I can see and feel a difference. Also I can't breath in deeply. hurts to sneeze, so maybe something is burning my lungs. Nothing major. Nothing to complain about, just wanted to note it for future reference really. When The girls came with me last week, Charlotte wore her pedometer and worked out, between the 2 trains we walked 2 miles each way. So 4 miles a day!!! Getting slower at it, but getting good exercise at the same time!!
Treatment back in the normal room today, with the normal nurses. all done really quickly and went well. Tried to get home to get the girls from school but they come out at 3:20 and train didn't get in until 3:40 so inlaws picked them up today, but I wasn't far behind. Turned up at Grandmas to bring them home and I think I was a bit of a disappointment. Don't they realise how hard I tried to get there!
Well, only 3 more treatments left. Thursday, Friday and Monday. Nearly done it!
