Just Two More Left To Go!

I went for radiation in the morning.  #5 of 7 sessions.  Just two more left to go!

 

I asked at the radiation clinic how long I should use the ointment the nurse prescribed - the leaflet that came with it said to use for 14 days and I am close to that.  But I was told to use it for as long as the skin is peeling and the new skin underneath looks raw.  A whole bunch of skin peeled off, today, when I washed the area in the morning, so I guess I'll be using the ointment for a few more days.

Afterwards, we came home and had lunch.  Then, daughter went to run a couple of errands she needed to do.  She needed to get some groceries for herself for a potluck barbecue her friends are having on Saturday and a cashiers check for her rent, etc.  She ran an errand for me, too, while she was out and about.  I played on the computer a bit and then, later, took another long nap on the sofa!  I was tired after the radiation.

After I woke up, however, I had some energy and so, I did a load of laundry, did the dishes, took the trash and recycling out, cleared the dining table (and dusted and polished it, afterwards), washed the kitchen trash can, and did a bit of paperwork.  I still have a small stack of papers to deal with, tomorrow; mostly things to file, but also a couple of bills to pay.

Today, I decluttered a newspaper with an article about cancer that a friend had given to me and 3 old computer software disks:
