Day 13 (35.1%)


I have now completed 1/3 of the planned radiation therapy treatments! Hooray!

Having said that, I am only hoping that my energy level will not continue to decline. It is really frustrating to feel so exhausted.

My original musical selection for today was “Thirteen Women” by Bill Haley and the Comets, a somewhat amusing end-of-the-world story in which thirteen women and just one man remain on earth. But then Randy, my Ph.D. dissertation advisor, dear friend, fellow music lover, and cancer patient himself (back in 1989 when we were both 37 years old, three years after I completed my dissertation) suggested a song called “Thirteen Years” by Alejandro Escovedo. Randy has always provided sage advice, so I decided to go with this one.

Have a good day.

Love,


Rebecca
