24 RADS done: Goodbye tube top, hello mountain top!

Thursday I had my last radiation treatment of the whole breast.  The technicians let me keep the tube top made of white mesh as a souvenir ("I went to radiation for four weeks, and all I got was this lousy tube top...").  Here's a photo of my tube top waiting to be bound to my chest in my very own personalized styrofoam cup.

Friday I had my first radiation treatment of just the lumpectomy site (my "booster").  So thankful that my shoulder (now officially diagnosed as a frozen shoulder) does not need to be raised above my head in this new position.  Friday, and for the final six treatments, I lie on my side, almost falling off the table, with my left arm above my head, and underneath the blissfully warm sheets that the sibley radiation techs provide.

And even more that I am continuing to feel physically better.  Went hiking yesterday!  Here's an update on my hair progress:
