Finally!

I think I am finally over my cold, I still have a bit of a cough but definitely much better than one week ago. I can now sleep through the night without waking to hacking up half a lung!

I've also made it through week 2 of radiation, it really feels like time is flying.  I'm excited to think that I'll be done with treatment before I realize it.  I am having a bit of discomfort in the radiation site but it hasn't gotten to the point that I should worry yet.  I'm afraid the edema may become problematic but I'm following recommendations for scheduled therapy and a night sleeve to help keep it from getting out of hand.

I know that I've only made it through 2 of the 7 weeks of radiation and I may be jumping the gun but I really feel like I'm ready to get back to doing all the things I was before my diagnosis.  I've decided to start slowly; I may not start training for a half marathon yet but I think I'm ready to be much more active than the couch potato I have been over the past several months.  My biggest dilemma is trying to decide which wig to wear when I do work out or if I should try the scarf and cap look for my trips to the gym.  My life is pretty good if that's my biggest dilemma, wouldn't you say?!
