Radiation what is it like?

It takes about 5 minutes to treat you and then you go about your business. Since I was getting my upper chest shot, it has made my throat very sore. I have also lost hair in a pattern that resembles as Jeff my Oncologist puts it (Austin Powers) NO I am not going to show you!

Kaye says my legs are skinny but all in all radiation is tough too. It makes you very tired and while you don't get as sick as with chemotherapy, you do run out of gas a lot. I think last week I over did it and so this week I am really feeling the effects.

Kaye and I are scheduled to go see the parents in Gastonia this weekend so I hope we have good weather. Please remember my dad in your prayers as he has had a variety of dings lately. Will let you know how the weekend went at another time

God Bless you all
Tim

Ohh gosh, I wish I'd known you guys were in town. I was in Gastonia that weekend (I'm back in NY, now) and would've loved to see you two.
