You know, the one at the end of the tunnel?! I am seeing that light! My numbers yesterday were in the two hundreds!!! (I would tell you the exact number, but I can't remember exactly.... I think it was around 240). But, my dr. thinks the shot today should get me down to zero! So, we can only hope.
Now, the news gets even better! I think we had a mis-understanding. I thought she wanted me to get 2 more chemo shots after I was at zero.... but apparently she just meant two more weekly blood draws after I am at zero, and then I will go to monthly blood draws. So, that means this could very well be my last chemo shot today!!! If it's not, that will be sad, so in my mind I will try to pretend that it may not be... but I certainly have my hopes up, because these shots really are not fun. I am so thankful for the technology and how fast they have been able to help, but It will be nice to be done with them and move on.

Oh I so hope so! Even if they don't zero out entirely, at least you know that you're definitely coming to the end of things, right?
Hopefully. I've read a couple of stories of women who've had their numbers come back up so they have to wait another year from that point again. But if you make it to the year, then you seem to be safe. So, hopefully the next year goes smoothly! But even so, it will be nice to be done with this part of it.
I'm sooo glad to hear that the numbers are coming down. And I checked out the new blog, and the grilled cheese sounds so good, I think I'm going to attempt it on my next day off. I'll definitely let you know how it turns out! I'm glad things are hopefully winding down with the chemo. But, I'll definitely keep you in my prayers. Love ya, and miss ya friend!
What happened???!!!
