Thanks to the assistance of my wonderful sister in law Dore, I received my last standard chemo this past Monday. Tomorrow I return for my major end of standard therapy check up (blood tests, CT scan, Doctor exam), Monday I continue the experimental part of the treatment (avastin every 3 weeks for about another year), and Tuesday i start back to work. Knock on wood I will have the endurance and not have to back off for more leave.
My apologies to folks I worried by not posting this Monday night. Between the last chemo, visiting with Dore, and napping while Dore worked like a dog I sort of ran out of time.
More details latter I promise.

Good to hear the first part is down. Hopefully the next set will give you a break from the frequent trips for treatment, and allow you to regain some of that energy! Hope you continue to receive good news tomorrow. //Jim
ReplyDeleteThroughout this narrative, Louisa has mentioned the wonderful friends and family that have helped out. I hope she realizes that people are wonderful to her because she has been wonderful to them. Face it, Louisa, you're a peach!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Louisa! Way to go, I hope the nurses cheered you on your way. (At my office they sing a "Happy Last Chemo Day" song to the tune of "Happy i to You"! Now for that nice growth of Georgia peach fuzz on your head! Kathy and Val
