Hi, Colleen! Great to hear from you again -- you really were so helpful to me through those hard months. Yep, I'm done with treatments -- still healing (feeling impatient about it sometimes!) but ever so much better than I was only three weeks ago. I think of you often.

Sharon, I really am pretty close to you in terms of treatment time and type; I've been there, and it's do-able! Not easy, but worth it in the end! Good luck finishing up your radiation treatments, and don't hesitate to ask us questions or just unload when you need to.
