Well, I'm very excited to be having my last chemotherapy treatment today! Can't wait to actually start feeling better again after the worst of the side effects are over, knowing that I don't have to feel so bad again in another two weeks, but that I can continue to feel better! Am looking forward to getting my sense of taste back (now almost completely shot), being able to eat dinner again (I've had to stop eating food after 4pm, as it makes it impossible to sleep), and to growing out my hair (although I've sort of gotten used to the "minimalist" look I sport above). It will be nice not to have to take the bone marrow shots (although I still have to do one more week of those, to get ready for the radiation therapy). I may start getting my periods back again (for the past 4 months I've been menopausal). I can finally get my teeth cleaned (the risk of infection is too great on chemo to do that). Lots and lots to look forward too... :)

Twelfth and Last Chemo Treatment Today!

Hope it all went well!
Hope the treatment went well and I am glad that you have lots to look forward too though most people would not list getting their teeth cleaned :). By the way I get to do that in a couple of hours and it is not high on my list of things to look forward to. As for the minimalist look you know it is way easier to maintain but I think you will have fun growing out your hair and deciding how you like it. Hope every day brings a stronger, hungrier and healthier you.
hope everything went well!
Glad all went well with #12 and it is all over!!! Will talk soon.
I am just as excited as you are Nancy, in having your last Chemo treatment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
