And we start again

Tomorrow begins our venture into Radiotherapy.

It's a strange feeling starting all over again. Just when we were used to all the processes of Chemo, we are once again the newbies!

That uncertainty which we thought we had moved on from, is back.

There is an apprehension for obvious reasons, but behind that there is also a glimmer.

This could be the one. The treatment that finally eradicates this disease. Banishes the spectre of a glow on the scan, the new growth, the final step towards 'The Bell'.

It's very different in the simplicity of the treatment as well. No hospital admission. No trips back and forth to get clothes, food stops and that monster suitcase that Erin insisted on taking, with what seemed like all her worldly possessions in it!

It is almost like this is the grown up treatment which she tackles on her own. In and out each day to return home. Like popping to the shops. Just a touch more serious.

We will all find our rhythm with this as well. One thing we know is that it is not faced alone.
