One More Day

…to quote Jean Valjean and company.

Tomorrow is my last chemo. (At least, I hope so!) I am very, very excited.

With my oncologist’s blessing (and despite my nurses’ protestations), I’m skipping my last Neulasta shot. If my white blood cell counts plunge too far, I’ll have to do daily Neupogen shots, but I’m hoping to get away with it. It’s one less weird chemical to pump into my body.

24 hours from right now, I should be finishing up and getting ready to sleep off my last chemo.

Woo-hoo!

I hope your last chemo went well! Wow, the finish line — can you hear me cheering for you all the way from Toronto?

It did go well! I actually felt great yesterday, comparatively, and didn’t sleep too much, comparatively, underscoring how powerfully connected mind and body really are.

Today I’m jacked up on steroids and general excitement. :)

Thank you for your cheers! They were most effective!
