Done!
Today was my very final chemo treatment! Woohoo! So much relief. I really am ready to move on with my life. I'm the type of person that wants to hit the ground running, but I do still need to take it slow. The doctor said it could take as long as my treatment was (9 weeks) to get back to feeling 100%. Still, every day should be a better one and that fills me with optimism.
The next step is a CT scan that I have scheduled for next Friday, August 14th. We're hoping and praying that the inflammation they saw in my lymph nodes has gone away or at least stayed the same. If they look more inflamed than surgery may be next, and not a very pretty one.
I remain optimistic, as do the doctors, that this aggressive chemo treatment I just finished, killed all of the cancer cells. Any positive energy you wanna send my way is much appreciated though! I will certainly keep you posted.
