Half Way Done

I am officially 51.5% through radiation. Yay! I also found out earlier in this week I am not supposed to be putting the cream on before radiation. Oops don't really want to messing around with cancer treatment. I didn't get a chance to ask the reason why, because lets be real the photons can make it through the cream (as noted by my reddened skin) and science. I can only assume that because when they do their calculations for how much radiation to dose for tissue mass they don't take into account the cream altering the surface. No one seemed to worried about it (or aware I had the cream on because my skin had already absorbed it). It's most like wearing SPF 5 and then sitting in a tanning bed. Maybe 2 seconds of protection. Either way, I stopped putting it on before the treatment.

As I checked number 17 off my countdown sheet I was singing this song (and substituted done for gone)

I also sang this when the treadmill read 1.5 miles today. Got another 3 miles done and 8:45 min/mile pace for the first 2 miles and 8:30 for the last mile. Getting there.
