Hi Brenda,
the photo turned out fine, it is hard excepting the poison but it is all for a good cause!
Chemo can be hell, stay positive. I had the first canular up my arm too, I still have the mark like a 5 cm bruise but it was on the inside of the arm, the rest were in the hand and I have no marks.
I have finished active treatment just before Christmas, slowly recovering. I felt like a science experiment at times it is amazing how much the body can endure.
hang in there
Kim
