That is so good to hear! Re the mask, do you know if they will be giving her a run-thru before the actual first session? That's what they did for my son and they invited me to go along for the run-thru and see the Rad room. They also told him he could bring music. The assistants even took a picture (which he requested) which is on my website here in case a picture might interest her:

Sounds like Valentina is doing much better than when we first heard from her. You are doing good, "T"!
