Long Overdue Update
Historically I have never been consistent with journaling. I get behind, feel overwhelmed, and then abandon it. Recently I have been challenged to journal my experience- the more uncomfortable, the better. This is totally out of my comfort zone but I’m going to give it a try. I’m not going to wait for Dan to proof my writing so enjoy any misspellings or incorrect punctuation. Treatment Update Step one of my treatment plan was ten sessions of Proton Therapy.
