My bad, in my first posting I neglected to mention that brain was getting treated. Radiation burn is a valid concern but for my Maryann getting rads to head I'm are more concerned with what we are doing on the inside.

Just wanted to clarify the chemo is not flushed out of the body within a few days. It can remain there for months. That is why one should not be expose to the sun for 2 years after stopping the chemo or dye the hair for a year. My beautician says she will not put dye on the scalp with in the year as it can burn the scalp and turn the hair colors not wanted such as green, purple or any color. She will highlight with a cap. Just wanted to share this as this is how we all learn. Good luck. hugs Sandy
