WEEK THREE OF RADIATION
Current mood: discontent

for some stupid myspace reason when I update my older blogs about my mother and treatments, they dont go directly to the top of the list, and that isnt what I wanted it to do.. so maybe I will just do daily updates when needed.

Anyhow, we are working on week 3 now. And I think that this has to be the hardest week thus far. Because my mother is in more pain now than she was before. And this is too hard to watch daily, but I have to.

The radiation is poison... and its taking effect on her body. She admitted to me today that she has lost her right nipple due to the radiation.. it literally melted the tissue off the breast and removed the nipple, and the tissue surounding the breast on the right side is almost completely gone!

That had to be the hardest thing to hear today.

I knew that this would happen but I didnt think that it would have happened so quickly. And I know that they rest of the tissue will soon diminsh.

Wow what a trooper she is. Because I dont know how I would be opening my shirt and seeing that my nipple and breast is gone, and due to radiation on a daily basis.

I applaud my mother for all the strength that she has.

I just wish that this cancer would leave her alone, and allow her to be the mother and grandmother that she wants to be without being ill.

I cant even imagine what the next 3 weeks will be like. I dont know now and really , truthfully I dont want to think about it now.

I will keep updated as needed.

Bare with me and understand that I am not doing this daily because by the time that i get home and do other things that I have to I am completely drained.Physically and emotionally.

So just keep my mother in your thoughts and prayers, if you believe in prayer and all that...
