I’d been meaning to PM you, as I hadn’t seen lately how the treatment was going.

Glad to hear it’s almost over!

ALL DONE!

I got a certificate and everything! Everybody liked the chocolate chip cookie cake. I have an appointment next Monday to meet with the radiation oncologist.

I asked if I could paint my nails, and the nurse said to wait a month. But best news is…I don’t have to have a Neulasta shot! My white blood cell count is fine, so no need for twingy achy bones this week!
