Last Chemo today

Hi Everyone, had my last chemo today, and so chuffed that this hurdle is nearly over. It was Docetaxel, so I'm just waiting for the upset tummy and the muscle and joint pain that will come in a couple of days. I wore my sequinned slippers and my favourite lipstick. The oncology staff all gave me a cuddle, they are absolutely awesome people who really care. Next step is radiation, but not until August. Onward and upward Folks, Trace xxxx??????

    Thanks Robyn for your support, that's lovely. I've been given a second chance at life, and consider myself lucky. So if I can help others to be positive and learn as much as I can about how to manage cancer treatment, that's great. Network members such as yourself are of great support and comfort. Warm wishes, Trace ????

  • Well done Tracey! I applaud your attitude that has shone through all your posts:):) A positive outlook can help with how we feel throughout treatment,and although I know some people don't agree with this,I feel it is very important.We don't have a choice with treatment,but we have a choice with how we approach it.Im sure the oncology staff also,appreciate people like you,with your lippy and sequinned slippers... it would put a smile on their faces :) Well done again Tracey!! Stay in touch and let us know what special thing you take to radiation!!!:) Cheers Robyn xox
