Oh Bren, I am so glad the pain is getting less. My kids teased me about drugs because I had to be very well medicated when I went to radiation with the mask. I could not take it. One morning, after treatment, my husband dropped me off and I told him to please go on back to work, I was fine. 5 hours later, I woke up in the living room chair with my coat still buttoned, my hat still on and the fireplace going. I was sweating. My son got up and dressed for work and kept passing me. THe next day, he commented on my new drug habit. It was amusing in a way, I was scared he was serious, but just pulling my leg. We all just do what we can. My heart goes out to you. Keep taking notes and keep us laughing with your humor! Debbie
