Burnish for a Starry Sheen

This blog is updated to keep friends and family abreast (HA!) of my cancer treatment. Please feel free to leave comments. As for the title, "Starry Sheen" is a play on my name and a reminder of our calling as Christians to continuously grow in faith and wisdom and obedience, aiming to "shine like stars in the universe" (Philippians 2:12-18). I firmly believe God can use this experience to burnish me: to polish my roughness so that I shine brighter for His glory.

NO Radiation!!

I found out from my surgeon yesterday afternoon that I won't need radiation! I am so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so glad. Radiation would have meant going to the hospital every day for 4 weeks after finishing chemotherapy (and would have taken place over the summer, which would have meant dragging the kids to the hospital every day for 4 weeks; and, of course, radiation has serious potential side effects).
I feel as if the end is in sight. SO glad!
