Chemo is finished! I never have to go back to this little cubicle again. We were happy to hear that my blood counts had rebounded well again yesterday and I was all set to start my last chemo session with no delays. It went smoothly, just another day of sitting and watching it drip (or be pushed) into my veins. I thought I'd include a picture of me without the hat... it really shows how things have changed since the first chemo. I'm feeling good this morning and I'm excited to celebrate the holidays and get back into somewhat of a normal routine after that!

After we left the hospital yesterday, we went to mom's to celebrate Ryan's birthday with the family. Michael's mom & dad celebrated with us on Thursday night so he's been lucky enough to have a drawn out birthday - he's not quite sure when he actually turned 4! When Michael & I left mom's we went to the gym (too much birthday cake lately) and had a great workout. It felt good - a great way to end that day on a high note.

What next? I'll start radiation in a couple of weeks and then have another PET scan after 20 rounds of that. My oncologist confirmed yesterday that my tumor is completely undetectable by touch, what a good thing! Radiation should take care of everything else that we can't feel or see.

Thanks again for all of your prayers & support - it means so much to the entire family!
