Last chemo Tomorow :-)

Well.... The day has arrived and I can't believe it. My last chemo is Tomorow morning and I feel anxious all of a sudden and I don't know why. You will remember me in the early days and how distraught I was and how I couldn't see that light at the end, well that light is shining so bright and I can't believe I'm there. Just can't shake the anxious feeling. I've adrenalin pumping but not sure if is from excitement, or happiness or just plain scared again. Weird I know. But the end is near. Monday I have my planning for radiation and Tuesday is my 3 monthly review. I'm going to be asking about reconstruction too :-) Thanks everyone for letting me whinge and cry and scream here and for not judging me when I was in my dark place. You are all amazing xxx Jodie

    Thanks everyone. I just lost a week of my life. I handled every chemo with strength, the final one kicked my butt big time :-( I was bed ridden for 6 days and extremely scared but I'm back and fighting again. I'm getting stronger everyday. I have slight neurapathy but it's ok and I'm handling it. Thanks for all your wishes. Xxxx it means so much. I have my radiation planning on Monday and will start that I a few weeks. Hopefully that easier than the last chemo hehe Love Jodie xx

    Yay ya...great work Jodie

    How wonderful that you've made the journey, just like to finishing up a Marathon run.........Dont nervous anymore, you need to have something to celebrate and cheer up again, you need to have some reward yourself. 

    Great job.

    I think it is hard to adjust to change and that is what that weird kind of scared feeling is. But you will soon be in the groove of radiation visits. The staff are usually fantastic and because you see them daily it is very friendly in my experience. Hope it all goes well. No more chemo side effects, YAY! :) Deanne xxx

    Good luck tomorrow Jodie. It's kind of scary finishing! I too struggled a bit with it. From what I read many people feel that way. Great you can get your radiation sorted so quickly. Good luck. You made it!!! Paula :)
