Had my last chemo treatment on Friday.
Now, I get a couple of weeks off (which will include our annual Thanksgiving traditions), and then, on December 2nd, I will have a scans done, and see the doctor, to find out what's next.
Just trying to trust in the process, and hope for the best. Just trying to relax and live my life.
Easier said than done.
My hair did not fall out from this last cycle of chemo, though, so it is starting to grow ahead of schedule! YAY!
Also, this past week, I saw the surgeon for a final follow up. I will now only have to see her again f I get the port removed. My oncologist has recommended leaving the port in for now.
The surgeon also ordered physical therapy for the lymphedema. I tried to make the call to schedule it on Friday, but got no answer. Will have to try again this coming week.
In addition, I had my eyes checked and got new glasses. They are magenta. Yes. They are.
Our little 5 day long weekend was very productive in many regards.
It was also fun!
To help me celebrate the end of chemo, one of oldest friends came down from Chicagoland to spend the weekend.
She arrived on Friday while I was at chemo, and we met her at an area restaurant and brought her home with us!
We had a lovely visit, did some nature trail hiking out at Red Rock Canyon and it was SO good to see her.
She was at her Michigan home when we were in Chicago in July, so we missed each other then.
Dropped her back at the airport just about an hour ago.
Miss her already.
Off to do laundry and make a pot of soup for dinner. TIRED!
