Things have been going well with my radiation treatments. I also began an oral low dose chemo 5FU about 4 days ago which will make any remaining abnormal cells that may be present more sensitive to the treatment. I put Caledula cream by Highlands Homeopathic on the left side area of that breast and underarm a couple times a day and have noticed no skin irritation as of yet from the treatments. I do notice dryer throat from the oral pill and dry skin. They told me to wear gloves if I use any cleaning agents even if natural types and to avoid hot or cold water temps when bathing.
Also today I am with my oldest who is getting his wisdom teeth removed so there is always something else going on when you are a mother of 3 for sure!
I'm singing for a "Blue Christmas" service tonight dedicated to people who may have a less than happy holiday season due to a loss of a loved one. The song called "The Yearning" is beautiful and a friend in town pulled together some other singers she knew to create 4 part harmonies. Looking forward to hopefully offering comfort to those who may need a little extra boost this time of year. I just love the holiday season, and once again my husband went out to find us the biggest tree he could fit into our family room! Such a lovely time of year...
