Earthquake and First Day of Radiation

I will not take it personally God that on the first day of my radiation treatment, Virginia suffers an earthquake, the magnitude of which has not been seen here since 1879! For most of us who have never felt the tremors of an earthquake ... we had no idea what the rumbling sound and then the earth shaking meant! Thankfully the only thing that tipped over in the library was one of the plastic display stands.

And thankfully too that my radiation treatment went well ... it was short and sweet and I was home by 4 pm. I guess they can't do it any longer or they will fry me. I like my two radiation therapists -- Tanya and Kelly.

As soon as I got home, I exercised, showered and then used my Eucerin lotion on the breast. I've been looking through the radiation therapy forum on breastcancer.org and quite a few of the women are recommending emu oil. Not so sure how I feel about putting animal fat on my body. I'll have to think about this one and explore it a little more.
