More Radiation

My mom had another simulation appointment today where the doctor precisely identified the area on her side she will receive radiation. This involved her lying on a table while the doctor and radiation therapist marked the field with small dots made with permanent ink. Each dot is similar to a very small tattoo. She did not receive any radiation treatment during this appointment. She is schedule to start radiation on Monday at 4:00 pm.

She also was surprised with daffodils and a teddy bear from the Sequoia Regional Cancer Center.
