Day 1...

Today I start on my new treatment for 6 weeks. I have to apply the cream for 10 hours every night for 5 days and then 2 days off.  My incision is really healing nicely but that is going to change according to my doctor as it WILL get worse before it gets better. The getting worse part is the way they know if it is working or not....worse means it is working. It reminds me of when I had my mastectomy, the scars were healing nicely and then after the chemo came the radiation and everything went haywire...what a mess and to this day the scars from it are horrendous and I still suffer with pain in those areas.This is the 4th Christmas for us that we are dealing with something to do with this cancer stuff. I really thought this year was going to be different. My pharmacist and I joked around tonight and said " no close up photos this Christmas". He is so sweet and is always there if I need to ask questions about any of my medications.
Most of my shopping is done and wrapped and some for family off to the post office....cards were all done...decorations up so now I will just relax until Christmas Eve Dinner.
