ok..where did those 4 weeks go....Last week I saw the gorgeous Dr Shroud and he planned my life for the next 6 weeks. I took my clothes off and got tattooed with three miniscule blue dots. The laser will line the dots up so I am in the correct position. The back of my head, neck and shoulders were molded. So on wednesday I go for a trial... go into the room, take position on the table and *ZAP* get a chest xray....then on thursday I start radiation therapy. Radiation therapy increases my survival rate by 10%.
