Day 20

Today I am feeling good about my hair and decided to go ahead and wash it. It looks like my plan is working. Every five days is the ticket! It’s all still there. I should be getting my stellar head gear any day. Can’t wait to try it on.

I have had no radiation for two days and feel better and better, maybe a little light headed, but that could be the garlic J has me eating…I am reeking! He says maybe tomorrow we can stop. I really think it’s now permeating his nostrils too if the truth is known. The funny thing is I kinda am beginning to like the drink….but I can’t stand the garlicky essence I have become!

Along with the radiation there is a weird little chirping sound in my ears. When I first started having this, I thought about reading the Merck book….You know what? Here is my theory on the books and pamphlets……This stuff is not positive. The few things I have read are not helpful. My oncologist and favorite, doctor Johnson, actually advised me to never look at them, he said they were too gloomy. Watch out for this “too much” info. Anyway…..back to the sound, it’s like a combination of heavy feedback, the National Anthem, Razorback fight song, and inspirational music. Thank God I can multitask!

I went to a church service tonight. So….. there I was praying to God, talking 90 miles a minute, just like one of the many seminars I’ve led at Suntrust. The preacher called me to come up. He didn’t say my name, per se, but he had me straight on. I walked up there and the first thing he said was, “God is trying to talk to you Sandy… He’s saying ‘SHUT UP!  Sandy SHUT UP!  I am working………Take a break!’” Those of you who know me well will understand how momentous that was. What’s even more monumental is that I actually did it … I just simply shut up … right before I hit the floor.

I lift up Tony, Peter, and Kathy….Angels from Heaven!
