Re: Started Rads to chest for SVCS
Hey, Jessica, can you post your photo with Santa? I'd love to see that! In the meantime, please know that while I am sorry your trip had to be foregone, I am overjoyed to hear Christmas will happen for you. Nice to know you are so loved that your family is dropping all to head your way. Please let us know when you begin to feel a lessening of symptoms since you stated the rads have a tendency to produce quick results in your condition. Hoping you will feel less shortness of breath and pressure by year's end! You are one tough, brave cookie! I admire your pluck and determination.
A very Merry Christmas to you, Jessica, and warm wishes for a wonderful birthday!
