You know why I'm following your adventures with cancer treatments so closely. And it's good to see you're holding up so well and have Very Important Pollination Experiments to do.
But no deodorant???? Ewwwwwwwwwwww.
Oh well. Small price to pay for cancer-freeness.

How's Roy feeling? Do you know when his surgery is yet?

I know you are...and so far, it has all been bearable, although I am seeing a wee bit of a rash on the left breast. Hoping it will subside.

The no-deodorant is because most of them contain metals...or alcohol. The first wreaks havoc with the radiation (although I don't know exactly how), and the second is yet another stress on newly-hypersensitive skin. Twice daily gentle washing with soap is keeping the smell under control.

Roy gets CT scans and MRIs tomorrow, and the results will give us some idea of what comes next.
