UPDATE - 

On Monday, my husband & I went to St. Joseph's hospital in Bellingham, to start my radiation treatment. Because there is such a huge backlog at Abbotsford's hospital, BC Medical is sending a lot of cancer patients there. 

As I mentioned in my last update, I am currently cancer-free, but apparently the rate of recurrence is approximately 30%. However, radiation can cut that rate by 2/3. We just found out yesterday that I am only going to need 5 treatments, rather than the 10 we'd been told initially. Here's a picture of a beautiful mural, at the cancer center.


I have been looking for a new winter coat, so we stopped by the Burlington coat factory near Cordata station. And I found a new coat, for a pretty reasonable price!


And on our way to the Cordata bus loop, we saw a rainbow! 






Anyway, that's all for now, I'll be doing a pre-Christmas post soon.
