Last round just around the corner

I cannot believe that I am already up for round six. This has been the hardest journey I have ever been through and here I am. I feel great, well tired, but better than I have for a while. This weekend was good. I fought a low grade fever, but it never went above 99.5. I was in crazy pain Thursday and Friday. Saturday we celebrated my Aunts birthday and I was able to eat an entire normal meal. By Sunday I was back to normal. I even went grocery shopping, by myself which is something that I have not done in months. I shopped, put everything away and made a lasagna for dinner. Though, due to the chemo brain I forgot how to layer it once I started and used way more cheese than I should have. But I felt normal.

I have been so worried about this next round. Hopefully, it will be my last. Then I will get another Pet/CT scan and then I can start radiation. In May when all this was starting the journey of chemo seemed so long! The doctor said that it would be 4 - 6 months of chemo, depending if I could hand the 21 days apart or if I would have to do 28 days apart. The one thing that tore me up was that my Thanksgiving day dinner was going to be ruined because of the chemo. And now that I am coming up to this sixth round, it is hard to believe that I am at the tail end now. I just want my life back, I want to feel normal. I know that radiation will be more hectic than the chemo, but at least my hair will start growing back. I miss my eyebrows so much. I think that I will actually look forward to go to the center on monday to start this next round...
