I know I have been posting quite a bit today and I know I just got back but I bet you are tired of me already.  lol

My Mom starts her Radiation treatment tomorrow.  She has to go everyday for 7 weeks.  Starting at week four i will be driving her.  (an hour and a half away)  I am so nervous for her.  I know she will be fine, but still.  I have not done research on this.  I should I guess, but will she lose her hair?  I know she will be extremely tired or sick.  It effects her diffierntly since she is on Dialasys.  (home based)  They wanted to put her in a hotel for 7 weeks but she said heck no.  lol.  Hopefully these weeks go by super fast! Tomorrow she will be getting a "tattoo" they have to do the radiation in the exact same spot every time.  (it will disappear over time) Any advice?

As time moves on I would guess the 3 hour trip there and back will get very tiring. Positive thoughts going out for your mama.
