David,
Add my echo to all the above . I will pray for a good pathology report for Linda and an easy time with the radiation. Neg nodes and clean margins are a double blessing.

In preparation here is some advice I got from the oncology nurse before I started radiation for BC. I hope it helps make life easier for Linda:
1) go braless
2) wear all natural fabrics - I found that cotton JonesNY tshirts wash well with v little shrinkage and hold color well. With a loose shirt/blouse/jacket T shirts can be worn for everything from casual to v dressy and no one noticed - no need for those expensive "BC camofalge clothes." Buy a size larger than normal for comfort.
3) At least twice a day use Medline Remedy skin repair cream (no closer 4 hr b4 radiation) on whole chest area, throat and over sholders to back. If this is hard to find, try a local discount pharmacy or Walgreen's has on line. Even if you have to order more than one tube it is very good for allpurpose use.
4) Do not use regular deoderant, use a crystal type.
5) Wash gently, no very hot shower. I used baby washcloths.
