Hello Clare & Bryan (Clarebryan62)
Well all looks to be going to plan and after a good holiday what can be better than 20 sessions on the "sunbed" to keep up his tan (and zap those nasty little cancer cells).
I hope he sails through his remaining fractions - you will find it strange when life gets back to the "new normal" and you have no daily visits to the hospital.
Thank you for the update anf good luck moving forward.
Best wishes - Brian.

Hi Claire & Bryan (Clarebryan62 )
As a patient on a cancer journey similar to yours may I wish you both all the very best. I am sure that the treatment will be successful and the side effects will reduce to nothing more than a nuisance. If you have the patience read my profile by all means, it may reassure you about the future.

This seems good news.
I finished the same process in February and, as Brian said, it was a little peculiar when I didn't have to go to the hospital any more.
The better part of 3 months on and I don't feel any side effects from the Radiotherapy at all.

Changed, but not diminished.
Hi Clarebryan62 - just re read your whole profile for your hubby. All heading in the right direction- well done! AW
Good morning Clare and Bryan. Glad to hear that things are going to plan with only a minor hiccup so far. Keep us updated on how the rest of the treatment goes. The fatigue can build up with the number of sessions on the 'sunbed' so maybe use the time to plan another holiday? The eastern Med is warming up nicely although we have just had another tsunami warning due to a strong earthquake north of Crete and the earth did move for us.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
