Not sure why I did it, but I took a picture each day of radiation. It’s kind of like a souvenir…something to help me remember my time there – the good and bad. It’s fun to look back at the photos as you can tell what was on my mind each day. 34 days in the same place, doing the same thing gets old really fast. This helped me look for new things each day as I tried to make the best of it!
Day 10
I brought some hats in for Carol, who is starting to lose her hair. This one is too warm for summer, so I kept it and took a picture
Day 14
Day 14 – Figured out I could tie the gown behind me so it doesn’t feel like I’m wearing a tent! Hooray!
Day 23
Kids are with me again. They are looking for the hermit crab in the tank who changes shells a lot!
Day 25
Giving Carol her Chemo Care bag. I enjoyed getting to chat with her each day as we were waiting for treatment.
Day 26
No one told me I would get souvenirs! Woohoo! Last day of treatment to this field. Tomorrow I start on a new machine and don’t need the snorkel!
Day 30
My parking pass that allows me to park in the Valet lot which is close to the radiation oncology building
I enjoyed those pictures! Brought back a lot of memories for me which is six years ago now! I pray you look back 6 years from now with peace like me.
Thanks for the pictures. You’ve come a long way baby. You are one strong and tuff lady. We are so very happy for you and your loving family. God bless.
Dear Jennifer – You have walked your journey with transparency, grace, and yes, with your wonderful sense of humor. You are so much like your Mom in that regard. Blessings for a year of MORE recovery – you continue to be in our prayers.
