Took pain meds.
Had 75 staples removed from shark bite.
Had second radiation.
Had a big sleep after.
No pain to report!
That was a full 3 hours!
Praising God from whom this blessing flowed!
This is me getting lined up just right for radiation today. The procedure itself does not hurt and the techs are so sweet and kind:
Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.

75 staples??? Yowza! No wonder you refer to it as Sharkbite.
