Ring this bell
three times well
The toll to clearly say
my treatment's done
this course is run
and I am on my way.
Cheesy I know, but when everyone gathered around me and cheered me on - the nurses, the ladies at the front desk, my mom and aunt, and some patients, rather, friends I made along the way. It was very touching. My daughter made me wear a tiara because I was the chemo princess. They all got a kick out of it.
The next two week was crappy. I was throwing up like crazy and in pain. But I got through it. Now I have a very thin layer of peach fuzz growing on my head. My eyebrows are slowly starting to grow back, enough so I can follow the line to draw them in.
Tomorrow I will get mapped out for radiation. This is where they draw the marks on. I am nervous about this. It has been nice these last few weeks not having any treatments lined up. Just being able to rest. Radiation will last for 6 - 8 weeks. Then on Friday, I will have another PET/CT scan.
I just started back to school. It was nice having so much free time! I sure am going to miss laying on the couch and being a bum - lol.
