i went to the radiation office this morning. they put marks where the beam will go and took pictures with a CT scanner to get the position correct. i go back on the 25th for a dry run and then start treatment on the 28th. i also talked to one of the social workers who told about some volunteer opps. at their office. she was saying they have meetings sometimes and people share their survival stories. they also have groups where survivors are matched with newly diagnosed patients to help them through the process. so much of what she said was exactly what i've been praying about. i was so excited! after radiation is finished, i plan to look further into it. i've also been thinking alot about some things i have learned in this journey and one thing i want share is to not hold resentments. our lives are to precious and sometimes too short to hold grudges. forgive and let go. you will be happier for it. just give it to god and he will carry it for you. i did and it made all of this so much easier to bear. love jennifer
