Finished Chemo

Folks, I finished my 7th and final adjuvant chemo session yesterday (Xeloda).
What a great feeling to be at the goal line.
I wasn't sure what to do today without pills to take...?

But than I figured it out...and that was to go LIVE my LIFE!

It will be a couple of weeks before I can have a reversal surgery...but I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders and needed to share with others who would understand.

Cheers to all of you!

    Congratulations. That is great news. I wish you great joy as you "resume life". I'm in that process myself (finished chemo late June). I'm so enjoying embracing normalcy.

    What a great feeling! We do understand, and yes it is like a huge weight has been lifted. My husband had his reversal surgery done in June and is finally doing better with that. Keep us posted on that surgery, but for now, go live your life like never before!!!!!
