I have 3 more treatments to go out of 6. Halfway there. I am taking TAC rough 2 out of 3 weeks are rough. My husband is being supportive as much as he can. But we will get through this.

    halfway
    Darlene, you WILL get through it. And this is the hardest part..from what i hear. I just finished my six and yes it was rough..but i am starting to feel better day by day. I know it seems like it will never end..but it won't be long now and you will see our flashlights shining for you at the end of the tunnel. And i can tell you that is the most wonderful sight of all! You are lucky to have a supportive hubby, that will be so much help for you. My best to you for the next 3 to speed on by. I'll be waiting with my flashlight on!
    God Bless

    We are shinning those
    We are shinning those flashlights guiding the way out of the tunnel. You should be seeing our beacon soon. Chemo is tough especially the adriamycin, but you'll get through it. We are all waiting for you at the end of the tunnel. Hugs, Lili

    Hey Gerrico. I had the same
    Hey Gerrico. I had the same TAC treatment (six treatments - one every three weeks), and I really sympathize with you. However, please know that the last three are the best because each one puts you closer to the end. Take lots of precautions by staying away from people who are sick, wash your hands often, drink lots and lots of water, and rest. The next nine weeks will be gone before you know it, and then you "graduate". My flashlight has new batteries (I just replinished them for Jackie, Moopy and Mimi), so will have it ready to go when you reach the end of the tunnel. Hugs.
