Looks like Spring has Sprung!
Oh how I adore Spring in Canberra!
Always a thrill when the cherry blossoms bloom!
I've been taking it very easy since Sunday afternoon.
Hubby has taken a couple of days off work and is doing a stellar job looking after everything so that I can rest and recover from these radiation burns. I slept most of yesterday away. It will take weeks to heal and I'm afraid that its going to be a very challenging time. I'm hoping that a couple of quiet days will allow enough healing for me to be functional for the rest of the week. Though my hopes aren't high. Radiation burns are different to thermal burns. They aren't measured in degrees...rather in grades. And it's not how deep the burns go down but rather a case of missing skin...skin that hasn't yet regenerated and come up from beneath. The skin will react how it reacts and no ointment will stop it...just soothe it. So I am going to have to be patient and careful and wait for the healing to happen in its own time. How I manage that while looking after the boys is the challenge but I'm sure I'll find a way.
Spring...a time for new growth be it blossoms or skin cells.
