Thanks for all the well wishes. It really is a pick-me-up to see them.👍

Things are moving forward - I'm a week out of the whole brain rads treatment, and the head is in ramped up healing mode. That right now is causing some pain behind my right eye and generally on the right side of my face. Steroid course is almost done (goodbye chipmunk cheeks), but without the steroid, the fatigue really shows itself. 

This next week I'll be primarily resting - to allow for better healing.

It was almost impossible to earlier - there were so many people to meet - from the palliative care team, the NP, the PT, OT. They've all been great, though, and I feel well taken care of at home. Next up will be scans 6 weeks post treatment.
