Today I saw my oncologist for the last time before my last chemo!!! It is all very surreal to me right now. I can't believe I have made it to this point and this is all really coming to an end. I was given the green light to have chemo tomorrow and also to head South in a week and a half. She wants to see me the week I get back to do some blood work to make sure my counts have or are starting to recover. Other then being ordered to stay out of the sun, I'm good to go.
She told me about a clinical trial that I qualify for and I met with the trial team and got all the information. It sounds interesting and I'll read over everything this weekend. I think I'll go ahead and join up with the trial but I just want to make sure I know what I'm getting myself into.
I cannot wait for tomorrow to come. I have my work friend Pam coming to my chemo and staying over night and a few friends who are going to come into see me throughout the day. Then home for a celebration of Thai food for dinner.
Friday is going to be the first day of the rest of my life as a Breast Cancer Survivor. I have so many emotions right now, I can't begin to explain them.
