Last day of the week

First of all, it has been very interesting how most of you decided to share your opinion with me directly and not through the blog. All opinions are valid and none are right or wrong, but I certainly appreciate them all. The most interesting response was a wonderful philosophical treatise someone made and emphasized their opinion by the sentence " in closing still be careful crossing the street" incredibly telling.

Today was a good day overall... The clan from Hopedale and Grafton sent a mammoth gift basket to the radiology dept. and I was told that its influence was incredibly well received. technicians, interns, admin, doctors and patients enjoyed the food tremendously. I was even told that some of the patients were making little bundles of cookies to take home as their extra calories. Very thoughtful gift; you people rule!

Today's radiation was on high, being that I only have 5 more sessions they are zapping as much as they can. They also explained the reason for the machine being at an angle. Since the dosage is so high, the new angle avoids the spinal cord and certain areas that they rather not disturb anymore. So now we know that one. After radiation, went with E shopping and had a ball!

Mimita, even at this point you are still teaching all of us. It is an amazing gift to see you in action. And yes, the shopping list for next week is growing. Should we purchase stocks at the chi-chi mall? Your Italian (wannabe) hermanita
