Special day for me - last Chemotherapy treatment!
What a big day it has been!!! Exactly five months (to the day!) after receiving my diagnosis I completed my very last Chemotherapy treatment and please hope and pray this was the very last one.... forever. Although I am feeling really tired and lethargic tonight I am dancing inside knowing that I made it through this gruelling treatment. I had 6 sessions held at the Mount Hospital in Perth under Prof Arlene Chan - the best! I can't deny that it has been both physically and emotionally draining at times but I made it this far with the love the support of my wonderful husband, little girls, parents, parents in law, sister, special friends and work colleagues. I have the most unbelievably amazing support network - I am blown away each and every day with everyone's kindness.
Unfortunately the Chemotherapy isn't the last of my treatment. I commence 5 weeks of radiation therapy on 6 December which will take me into mid January. I was hoping to start the New Year a little differently but ce la vie!
I am sorry I haven't written on here for a while. I have been keeping a separate blog to keep all of my family and friends updated with my progress. The address is www.emmataylorsjourney.blogspot.com - please check it out when you have some time.
I hope you are all well and looking forward to Christmas with your families :)
Keep smiling
