I'm half-way there!

I finished up my last dose of AC on Friday. YAY! I felt so good and energized yesterday after my appointment. My best friend and I even went out to dinner to celebrate.

This morning when I got my pills out, I almost cried. No more chemo pills! WOW.. it's hard to put into words what that feels like. Every morning I stared down at those 3 blue pills, not wanting to put them in my mouth and swallow them. Today, there are no blue pills! My energy level just spiked at that :)

no more chemo 9-6-08

Next Friday I start Abraxane, which is much easier on the body than the AC. I also go back to work a week from Monday. In order to get ready, I'm going to spend next week pretending I'm going to work. My plan is to shower every night and get up at my normal work time and get "ready" every morning. I also plan to leave the house every day and not take any naps. My sister and I are going to start walking every day too. Hopefully, by the time the 15th rolls and I put in a full work week, I won't be too drained and exhausted.
