Ma's day started off with a follow-up with her surgeon. The hole in her breast is much smaller, and Dr. Cogen is happy with the healing progress.
Afterwards we went to Andrea's for lunch. We had paksiw na lechon, pinakbet, and pancit palabok. My friend Joji stopped by for a chat, and she sent us home with desserts and more pinakbet.
Back at the cancer center, Ma had a short visit with Dr. Shank, the radiation oncologist, before her treatment. From now on she'll see Dr. Shank every Tuesday after her radiation. The treatment itself was uneventful, and I didn't even bother staying in the control room to watch. I'll have to ask if I can take photos of the room where Ma gets her treatment.
