Congratulations!
Congratulations, Carkris. 16 rounds of chemo 100% completed is awesome, something not only to be proud of but to take comfort in. The worst is over, despite the coming surgery and rads.
Wishing you a relaxing and enjoyable break, with plenty of rest and quickly-appearing hair!0 -

Yeah, I think I'm next. 2 more weeks of Taxol and done! Yesterday's taxol went very well. As a matter of fact I had pulled my back and the steroids they gave me before the taxol took care of that! I was walking normal in class today. I actually had a little discussion about it with my 5th graders and used it as an example of how a "drug" can be used in a good way, but some athletes use it in a bad way.
Can't wait to be done!!! Just found out that I'll get a 3 week break before radiation.
YES!!! and my hair is coming back so nice and soft. I call it "cotton candy".

I was soooo happy!

Congrats!!! I finished my 4
Congrats!!! I finished my 4 a/c and 11 (couldn't get 12 in) on the 14th, we can grow hair back together
My neuropathy is really bad too, that's why they didn't do the 12th taxol. Sounds like it goes away over time. Keep me updated on the hair, I'm so so so excited to grow some Surgery for me on 2-11, then 30 rounds of radiation. WE CAN DO IT!!
BIG HUG,
