Her Last Day!

Here's Mom's last day of treatment.
She took lots of photos so we could share them with you. Here's the Watertown Cancer Center up at Prairie Lakes. It's less than a half mile from Mom and Shannon's house. Prety easy to stop on in for treatments
Here's the front doors to the center, she was pretty excited that this was her last day walking through them for quite awhile.
Kim & Shelley, the friendly faces at the front desk.
Nora & Julie her radiology nurses that held her hand through the whole thing.
It feels so good to see the faces that have been taking care of my Mom.
Here's Nora & Julie showing off Mom's big machine.
I didn't know what I had pictured in my head, but it wasn't this, and this thing is huge.
Here's where Mom spent 8 minutes lying completley still every day for the past 6 weeks.
Here she is, the newly treated and graduated Dianne Nielsen!
Complete with her new water bottle, diploma and very fashionable hospital gown.
I spoke with her for quite awhile tonight and she said she's not winking in this picture but the mass & treatments have made her left eye droopy, but it's getting much better
Here's a close up of her 'diploma'.
I'm so proud she's completed radiation.
Now we play the waiting game to see what's next.
She has another appointment in mid September (I think) to see how things are working out.
Keep praying and sending love!
All the Love in the Universe, Abby
Thank you For the pictures Mom! It helps your daughter in Seattle understand what's going on.
