Focused Radiation: 1 down, 3 to go

I had the first lung radiation treatment yesterday afternoon.  With the help of some calming essential oils, aspirin, anti-anxiety meds and relaxing music, I made it through okay.  It is still really uncomfortable, especially for my arms, but easier to manage with the aids I mentioned. 

Thanks to several friends and colleagues for suggestions on what to do and how to prepare for this treatment.  I've taken all suggestions to heart and am using a lot of them!

I am looking forward to Monday evening, when this is all over with.  Hopefully, that will be the end of any radiation treatments of any kind.
