Yesterday was Connie's last whole brain radiation treatment. Now, its just a sit back and see how much good we've done which we won't know for another couple of months with an MRI done probably in Cleveland.
When we're sitting at home here in Rockport at Copano Bay, you suddenly realize how much time those daily runs into Corpus Christi took. We're now pretty much going to do weekly runs now, with the next appointment with the oncologist next Wednesday, and the last Texas IV treatment the following Wednesday on the 24th. After a followup with the radiation oncologist on Friday the 26th, we'll be done with our spring Texas doctor visits.
Because she's not having to do the whole brain radiation and using the mask (that was molded with a full head of hair), yesterday was also hair cut day. The hair was falling out pretty steadily so Connie got it cut all the way down and now we'll see (without the radiation) how much it starts growing back. I know she's a lot more comfortable with no hair, than with hair falling out all over the place.
