So I had my radiation consultation today. Again I gotta say, I really adore my care team. I never feel rushed in my appointments and I never feel like I have stupid questions or concerns. 

Due to the positive margins that leave me with a 40-50% chance of redeveloping a tumor in that spot, we're moving forward with 30 radiation treatments. I go in tomorrow for my CT simulation which will scan me and help them design a plan. I'll know my radiation schedule by the time I leave my appointment tomorrow morning. I believe the planning of my treatment will take about 10 days so I imagine I'll start radiation either the very end of June or early July. 

My new job continues to be wonderful at accommodating all my appointments.

I may need to learn to give myself continued and extended grace on the state of my home as I know the main side effect of radiation will be fatigue. I'll need to rest. But also balance it with some light exercise. I'm glad Luna is so good on leash as walking her will be good for us both. Kevin has gone back to work and I miss him terribly when he's gone. When he's home he continues to take incredible care of me and our home. We went out for Korean BBQ for my birthday and Kajia took this lovely picture of us that I feel really captures what it's like to be loved by Kevin - it fills me with joy and makes me feel so lighthearted and safe. He adores me and I feel it in everything he does. This journey wouldn't be nearly as "easy" as it's been if it weren't for him. I am eternally grateful for him and the stability he gives me.
