Three weeks down

No known issues to report. Treatment continues in a routine way. Feel a tad tired at times, but no necessary link to treatment. The regular treatment sessions at the linear accelerator are interspersed with sessions where X-ray images are captured. No feedback yet on how treatment is progressing. Will see chemotherapy doctor on Monday. On Thursday I chose to travel door to door on the buses; that is 1h 30m each way! Compare that with 30m by car, so there is really no contest. Lynne drives me over quite often.
Weight is holding; blood counts are good...they have to be otherwise treatment would be suspended.
