Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share that Mom has her last chemo treatment tomorrow :) She is so excited and happy. I know we are not out of the woods, we will need a scan in a few weeks, but I'm just enjoying seeing her smiling and happy. She actually gained more weight from last months treatment. She is up to 138.

She said she will probably not sleep tonight. Usually she can't sleep because she is worried but she said tonight she probably won't because she is excited, like the night before Christmas, lol.

Just wanted to share. Thanks.

Linda and El

    Congrats to your mom!
    I couldn't do it - only made it through 7 rounds (tho it looks like that was good enough.)

    May all of your news be good news!

    a day to remember
    congrats!! i remember the day my mom finished her first round 3/4/10.i actually got a tattoo that says "f**k cancer 03/04/10" that is my best memory with my mom. all the nurses (some came in on their day off) gave us a hug, i dont think ther had been so many tears of joy in the chemo unit. my moms 47 and i'm 26 it was her and i through this whole thing. today things are bad. but i will always remember that day. again CONGRADULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!
