@dlgbb Thank you for posting the sweet photo of your little poodles. The place you are renting allows your poodles? When I was away from home for radiation therapy I didn’t find anywhere that would allow my cats and I missed them so much. But, I consoled myself with the thought that they are cats and although I was unhappy without them I knew they were far happier staying at home. My husband or my neighbor took care of them.

You are entering this radiation therapy with a happy spirit and I know from experience that this makes a huge difference in going forward. With the mountains so close I hope you will take some day trips after you’ve completed your radiation therapy for the day. You can see by my screen name of nature girl that this is what would interest me. My radiation oncologist told me that getting exercise every day would be helpful to me so I did a lot of walking. With the shops and parks you’ll have plenty of opportunity to do just that.

Will you keep me informed on how you are doing as you start the radiation therapy?
