Status update

Wow, I realized it's been practically a month since I wrote in my blog. So what's new with me? Life is getting back to normal again finally. I'm feeling good. My radiated skin looks totally normal, minus the surgery scars and three faint circles left from the stickers the radiation team placed on my breast. In fact, my radiation oncologist was very impressed with my skin as apparently most of his patients' skin don't look like mine until three of four months after completing treatment. He did, however, warn me that I will need to apply moisturizer to my radiated breast for the rest of my life (yay!). Otherwise it will get dry and flakey. I am still drinking my "green" smoothies and have gone on a diet to shed those winter pounds. I had a wake up call when I had to put shorts on last week (yes, it was 90 degrees one day here recently) and I could just barely button them.

FYI - I will continue to blog but probably not as often as I did before.

  1. Polly - moisturizing cream for the rest of your life?? Well I didn't actually know that, so thanks for posting out. There are worst things I suppose :)
