BROTHER'S FOLLOW UP APPOINTMENT WITH RADIATION ONCOLOGIST

Transported my brother to the cancer center today.  His wife met us there.  We all met with the Radiation Oncologist who examined his neck and looked in his throat and said it all looked good.  He paid special attention to the burn on his neck.  Gave him a script for antibiotic cream.  Wants to see him in one week.

My brother's main complaint is the pain from the neck burn.  He is not complaining about pain in his throat which is rare.  His doctor said that this is the time when the pain really kicks in.  At this point in my treatment I was in some really bad pain and taking a lot of pain meds.

He was in a really bad mood today.  Seems angry at everybody.  Wants it to be all over.  In a way, it has just begun.
