The sun is shining.
There’s even some warmth in it. I’ve put the washing out to dry. A few things
have even dried already.
It’s my last day of
chemo today. I feel relieved & a little jubilant. I’m hoping the warmth of the
day & my multiple layers (T-shirt, jumper, thick long-sleeved blouse, thick
cardigan) will mean all will go well. I shall be wearing mittens for the
journey to warm my hands as much as possible. They usually have difficulty getting the cannula
in as my hand is usually too cold so my fine veins shrink even thinner. My
veins also tend to be scaredy cats and move as the needle approaches them. The
putting the cannula in is the most traumatic part of the whole business. The
rest is just boring as the bisphosphonates drip in & sometimes I feel very
tired for a day or two afterwards.
The important thing,
though, is this is the last dose. As far as the cancer I will continued to be
checked annually for a while longer but that is all. So far all is clear. I can
move on with life again. Three cheers.
