Every round is getting harder and harder, the pain in my legs increases every time, the soreness in my arms, numbing and tingling in my hands and feet and worse of all, the swelling. I feel like a pregnant woman, by the end of the night I can no longer see my ankles. I have put on almost 20 pounds from water retention due to the drugs, but knowing this will almost be over will be worth every pound. It can and will be lost...
I am almost at the finish line of chemotherapy and can put it behind me. It will be like a bad dream that I woke up from as a winner.
Today is the day that I found out if tomorrow will be my last chemo or if I will need 3 more treatments.
This has been a long journey and I still have a way to go, but I have fought every step of the way.
The love and support of my husband, daughter, family and friends is what kept me fighting. Giving up was never contemplated, no matter how hard the decisions were and no matter how hard they are to live with.
Live...Love...Laugh
Love
