hi all,

I had my third treatment this afternoon, 27 to go. Tonight my face is quite red, swollen and sore. It's not going to be fun; in fact I suspect it will become really unpleasant before it's done. Thankfully though, I'm 3 treatments closer to having it over with. A good bit of the fear is diminished, perhaps replaced by resignation. I don't know for sure, but I think we'll get through it O.K.
