5.2.09 - last neulasta - last time in the chemo room!!






had my last neulasta shot today, said goodbye to the nurses, and walked out of that chemo room hopefully forever.

it's hard to believe that it's really all over. no more red and white blood cell count blood tests and doctor appointments every two weeks, no more liver enzyme blood tests at the hospital, no more IVs, no more 6-hour infusions, no more bone pain and neuropathy, no more meds!!!

looking forward to my hair growing back, getting my strength back, and starting radiation in a couple of weeks.

now it's time for the oxyocodone to do its magic and take way the neulasta pain for the next three days. hello, netflix!

i really can't believe it. the thing i was most terrified of is over, completely over.

i just can't believe it.
