Well last week i had all my radiotherapy planning done, scans, simulator and tattooing, so now tomorow afternoon i am to have my first radiotherapy session. I have read lots about the treatment but i am still wondering what they will do with me when i get to the hospital. When i was on the couch having my little pinprick tattoos and my measuring done, (with the lights dimmed down!) i was thinking of all of you on the site that have gone through this before me and writing all the blogs........it was kinda comforting for me.
I mustn't forget to ask about getting a parking pass, i think patients who have to have daily treatments qualify for this?
Ive not written on here much yet but often log in and read the daily blogs. This last week has been really hard for some it seems but its so nice to see the determination and positivity that keeps people going.
Well its time for me to get some sleep now, thinking of you all, luv Gillian X

Good luck with your treatment tomorrow, definately ask about parking, I have just finished radiotherapy and got free parking throughout treatment. Jozzy x
Thanku so much for all your good wishes for today. I was ok about going this afternoon and was amazed at how quick and simple it all was. One thing i was surprised at though, i got given the next 24 appointments and they are all over the place, some really late approaching 7pm and some as early as 7.30am! Gosh, i will have to keep my wits about me a bit :-)
I am pleased to say that i have managed to get free parking for my daily visits, so all in all a good day today..............................X
