At the Appointment

We are waiting in Dr. Quadro's office. His staff has let us know that he is always running late.

I was suprised to see the treatment area. As you can see it's a room full of recliners. I wonder if I can bring my Xbox?

And so the process starts. Though I wish you di dnot have to go through this I know you will be fine. Stay focused on beating cancer and getting back in good health. Does not matter if it is chemo or radiation treatments we have to get used to a new process in life. I did 4.5 weeks (Mon-Fri) of radiation. By the end I was sick, health wise and from seeing the place, but I will never forget the people. The people I met in the waiting room and the people that worked there. They made the entire process much easier. I hope you have a good people around you during your treatments.

LIVESTRONG!

Looks just like the room at Sutter that I was in. Brian is right about the people at both chemo and radiation, they were some of the nicest people you will ever meet. They all know what you are going through, and they try to make you comfortable. I brought with me some food to munch on and a book or hand games since it took so long. Uncle Manuel would come with me and go for a walk while I was having my chemo. The next day after chemo, I always had to go back for a shot to help keep my white blood cellls up. After I was finished with my chemo, and before my radiation, I had a Cancer Conference with all my doctors to ask questions about what had occured and what to expect in radiation. I was then given a write up of the conference including all of my history. O.K. that is enough for now.
