Final Chemo

Well, today was my last chemo treatment, yeah! I feel like crap but happy to be over that hurdle. I met my mom and most of my siblings in Idaho last week for a little reunion. We had a really good time together, got totally exhausted, and now I am trying to get myself healed up to start living again. My niece Tamra is here helping with the kkids for the week. I hear constant laughter so I think it is going well. I actually don't feel as bad as last time, so I think not having the Neulasta shot after treatment is the reason. I get August off, probably just some tests. I am excited to get more than just a week of feeling good. All the tests look good up to this point. I will update when I know more. Off to bed...

Hello All,
Hope you had a great 4th of July. I had treatment on Monday, and all went as it was supposed to. I keep hoping to go in and hear that I don't have to continue with the final treatments! But, just 2 to go so things are looking up. I think I am in denial again and just refuse to believe that I can't do what everyone else is doing. Seem to be wearing myself out alot these past few treatments but I bounce back with a little extra rest. I am soliciting info on radiation these days, so anyone in the know, please give input. Just curious how it affects you. Most people are saying it is not nearly as bad as the chemo, but I don't imagine it is a joyride, either.

Relay for Life is coming right up on the 20th. Thank you to all who have donated to such a worthwhile cause. There is still time...

Anyway, just wanted to quickly update you all. Feeling pretty strong and somewhat in control these days. Isn't that what we all hope for in our lives? Thank you for your support and love. I am feeling quite "full" these days. My life is overflowing with good things and great people.
