Let me explain. Well with radiation, comes burn. Like a sunburn that burns all the time. So comes the aloe. Now if your burn is in your armpit and your clothes, bra etc keeps rubbing it, then comes in the lidocaine in the aloe. Yup that's what I said, in my armpit. The bummer is that my clothes rub it and my skin wants to stick together.
So I walk around all day with my arm sticking out or my hand on my hip (like I got attitude!!) to keep it from rubbing and sticking together. I look really cool. And when I sleep, I sleep with my arm out or over my head. And if I have to turn, you have to do this very carefully, because your shirt your sleeping in will get twisted and caught all up in your armpit and rub. I bet you never knew all this happens when you sleep???Fun-times!
The good, positive to take away.......wait for it....wait for it....
I ONLY HAVE 7 MORE TREATMENTS!!!! Yes guys, WE MADE IT TO THE END!!!
Next Wednesday the 23rd is my last one. I am so glad this is going to be done with!! I have already made plans for my "new" life outside of doctors office and visits and treatments. More to come with this in the future.
Thank you all for helping me pull through this. I can't say it enough how much you mean to me. It has kept me sane and keeping me with a positive outlook on life.
Today's verse is awesome:
For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Galatians 5:1
Love to all,
