The absolutely last dose of chemo has entered my body. I'm ready to put up with the possibility of feeling bad for a few days but IT SHOULD BE THE LAST TIME!!!!
I do have to have a scan next Tuesday and then the following Tuesday 11/2 wil be my visit to the Dr so he can tell me that I'm clean and clear. I'm so happy and surprised I lasted the 6 months here alone. I had a few visits from my kids but they live so far away and have their own interests, jobs and degrees that they couldn't get here often.
I was having a dreadful day today. You know, you drop everything you touch. trip, confused etc. Well, I was leaving from treatment this morning when an elder couple came in and I'm sure one of them was waiting for the nurses to hook them up. The wife was very friendly and asked me how I was. Well, I dropped ear plugs, pens, cell phone you name it so I said" I'm fine but I'm thinking I need to go home, someplace safe and start over tomorrow!" She smiled and I said goodbye. I was standing at the desk talking to the nurse and I fel a tag on my shoulder.
It was the wife. She handed me this
Isn't it beautiful. I guess she or her husband made it. She said "Keep this and Jesus will take care of you today and after". Wasn't that beautiful? I haven't dropped a thing since 10:00 am this morning. My broken toe even stopped hurting. Its a little bracelet and I wore it all day.
I wish I had asked for their name. I have to go back Thursday to get this pump disconnected for the FINAL time. Maybe they will be there.
I can't even describe how I feel. Really. I have it with the other wonderful gifts I was given to get me thru this. Thanks Jesus....I had a wonderful and safe day
That is so neat! Way to go on the last chemo!

That was so sweet! I agree with Maribeth.
So glad you made it through and this was your last chemo treatment. :)
