Skin resembles burned blistered strawberries in places. Sounds awful. Looks awful. Feels awful once in awhile, but is ok most of the time.
Along with the lotion I've been using since day one, I am now treating the worst patches with gel sheets. These are very soothing and definitely improve the condition of the skin. The only problem is that they adhere readily to clothing so they're hard to keep in place. This morning I found one lodged in the sleeve of my pyjamas. But I think it migrated there only after it had done it's healing work on my skin.
Today I'll have the first 'booster' treatment. It will be a longer session than normal because it will involve a series of pictures along with the first time set up of the new treatment field. Thankfully, these last treatments will concentrate on an area of skin that is in pretty good shape. But they will take their toll.

6 to go

Same status as yesterday :) Sleeping a bit better lately. My sister Lorrainse asked about this since the timestamps on some of the recent posts were quite early in the morning. Turns out the timezone setting on the blog was wrong and the posts were stamped with a time one hour earlier than they were actually made. I've corrected this to ensure truth-in-blogging.

7 more treatments

Very worn out in the evening. Skin resembles strawberries. But still doing all right.

Eight is great

My skin will be mighty happy when the assault is over.

Nine is fine

The countdown continues and my condition remains the same - a little worn out but feeling fine. My skin is protesting the rough treatments it's been receiving more anre more every day so it will be good to have a weekend break. Thanks be to God for his love and faithfulness and to my family and friends for their continued prayers.

10 to the 10th

Not 10 billion (10 10) , but the number of treatments remaining between now and May 10th - the date I finish up.

Only 11 treatments left

No change - still feeling fine. Wish I were sleeping better.
