Radioactive Man


Andy started his radiation treatment yesterday. He said it went fine and from what I saw the only effect it had on him was that he was very tired. He has his second treatment today. I wish I was a better care taker. Yesterday, I was tired because it was my first day back to work and school which meant I was away from home for 13+ hours. When I got home all I wanted to do was make a snack and go to bed, but I walked in the door and saw that Andy could use some help and instead of comforting him, I just got bitchy and mean. Why is this always my first reaction? I did manage to make him some tea, but I know that I should have done more. So tonight my goal is to be better about things. I want to be supportive and helpful, he would definitly do the same for me.

In other totally un-related news, I found out through Facebook that this kid I had a huge crush on in highschool was killed in the line of duty on Christmas Eve. He was a marine so I am guessing he was serving in the middle east somewhere. I feel for his family and loved ones, that is a hard thing to go through at any time, much less right around the holidays.
