My journey started in May at 36 with triple negative stage 1. After lumpectomy, genetic testing, chemo - A/C and exempra, a night in the hospital for chest pains and a birthday I celebrate my last chemo today! I still have eight weeks of rads but I am happy today! Lots to be thankful for!

    I'm so happy for you having your last chemo treatment!! That's a huge milestone & now you can start to feel better! I'm a month past my last chemo, and it does get better every day! It may be slow going, but each day I feel better than the one before. I hope your rads go quickly & smoothly for you!

    Awesome!! Chemo was one of the most challenging parts of treatment, at least for me. It is a huge accomplishment to complete it and just in time for Thanksgiving. Way to go! Now on to the celebration!!

    Hooray ScubaGirl the chemo
    Hooray ScubaGirl the chemo is done. Now on to the rads. Prayers that your rads are trouble free. They are time consuming because they are 5 days a week for 8 weeks but hoping that you have little or no burning and mild fatigue. Use the lotions they give you or suggest every day and rest as much as you are able. But for now, celebrate the finish of one segment of your treatment.
