Now that my 25 radiation treatments are coming to an end, I decided to recap the experience in photos. Some are not the best pics but you can see where I spent my mornings for the last 5 weeks.

This is Maria, the receptionist. She is a sweetheart and she puts up with my silly rantings every morning!

After I would scan my card and chit chat with Maria, this is the "long walk" I would take...
The long hallway
...down the hall...
Nurses station
...past the nurses station & rooms...
Office
...to the dressing rooms & waiting area.
Here is my dressing room and a picture of me in my "designer" gown:

Here is the lovely waiting area:

And just around this corner:

THE MONSTER:
(and Cassie & Koi - two of the technicians)

Here is a picture of the whole tech team and my Dr. The names noted in the picture are the people that have taken such wonderful care of me!

...and last but not least, a picture of my shoulder about half way through the treatments...take what you see and imagine it about 3 times worse that this picture. At this point you can see a red, irritated, almost blistery rash beginning to appear:

Yuck! It got worse but I will spare you those photos! Through it all, I'd have to say it wasn't too bad. Everyone at NCC took such wonderful care of me and I will miss them all! Hopefully, after tomorrow, I will only be back to visit and say hello!!

Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death.
