I officially start radio next week...I don't know why it has been prolonged, they told me I was going to start 2 weeks ago. The day is soon approaching where I shall experience the next step of this fantastical process called cancer.
Yesterday I had to go back to the hospital to get re-drawn. Interesting. My head is locked in so tight in a mask, and all I feel is 2 people drawing on me. Here I am giggling because you really need to envision this. They think I am freaking out in the mask...lol...The mask is so tight it sounded like I was gagged. "Relache-toi, Madame Polito." More relaxed than me, they don't get!
So far this part of the deal has been really fun. It is like I am in an art class and we are drawing and sculpting. Melissa shows me around the radio-oncology and then explains my process. Very informative. Very cool. The art department has nothing on the facilities at Maisonneuve. This time they drew the lines alot darker and there are pieces of scotch-tape all over my chest...they claim it won't let the ink run....ummm....ya...ok
This idea of not being able to use soap for my top half freaks me out. SHAQUAT...jeeze louise. The fact that I can't even have a drink while under going treatment. This is some sick joke...lol...I realize more and more that I absolutely hate rules. All I continue to tell myself is that it is almost over. God owes me big...It better be some studly mcstud while I am in Boston, let me tell you!
So I have lines across my neck, chest, sides and other places. I personally think they went a little Sharpie crazy but it's all good. Funny thing though, I have already had a handful of people ask me if I drew these lines myself. Also being that the hospital people used red and black ink...well mixed together the lines look PURPLE. My campaigning strategy is not that strong but I am happy because I realize that even had I drawn them, my friends would have accepted that as another quirky aspect of my character. I love you guys for that!!! Seriously, though, how much time do you think I have on my hands?...Dudes?
