i have three new tattoos! there are even smaller than last time, tiny almost unfindable dots left shoulder right shoulder right abdomen. they were nice enough to use a ridge in one of the poppies as an alignment point, so my tattoo will stay unblemished. now i’m wondering if the radiation itself will cause any damage to my beloved poppies. i hope not!
i start radiation next wednesday. it’s only going to be four weeks this time and will be much less invasive – they were telling me that the last time they really went deep into my leg. makes sense then that a fair amount of the hair on my left thigh has still not grown back. one less spot to shave, i suppose.
