7 down, 1 to go......

I am back from round 7 and resting in bed.  My body is asleep from the benedryl but my eyes are wide awake and won't close from all the steroids.  They gave me  LOTS of drugs today so that I wouldn't have a reaction this time.  Other then a scratchy throat I was fine.  Dawn came to visit over her lunch hour and brought me the most amazing sandwich I have EVER had.  Super yummy and great to see Dawn. While we were at chemo Lorri was here cleaning my house.  What an amazing friend. She has come EVERY chemo without fail to make sure I come home to a clean and germ free house.  She even washed my walls today.  Lorri has been an amazing friend going above and beyond for us. 

Only 1 more treatment to go.  YEAH!!!  I can hardly believe that when I walk in there it will be for the LAST time.  I had one of my favourite nurses today.  She won't be there on April 5th so she gave me a big hug today and told me that I should be very proud of myself for sticking this out.  She knows I have not had the best go of it.  I think my final one will be emotional.  Thank goodness I'll have my friend Pam there and I'll be dressed up in some crazy outfit.  That should lighten the mood.

I am off to rest now and hope to force my eyes shut.  Maybe a little duct tape.  Dad says that fixes everything.
