I never though feeling so bad would feel good. I made it through my 7th session and it has really taken it out of me. The encouragement is that I have only one left.
I met with my oncologist on Wednesday as I was finishing up the infusion. I tried to talk my way out of part of the final treatment, but he feels I am doing very well and wants to finish the full course. I guess I have come this far...
The other good news is so far my blood counts have remained up and they see no reason to delay the final treatment. The medicines are doing a great job of countering most of the side effects but the exhaustion continues to increase. Lost of naps and rest periods.
We had a very enjoyable Thanksgiving dinner with our neighbors although I was only able to last for a few hours.
In spite of how I feel currently, I am really looking forward to my final chemo session and finally giving my body a chance to get rid of all this poisen and start the road to recovery.
I was going to post yesterday to thank everyone again and wish everyone a happy thanksgiving, but atlast, I just ran out of energy, so Happy Thanksgiving and thank you again for all the love, support, prayers and good wishes.
