One more! But ugh! Really??????
Feb. 28th, 2013 09:11 pmChemo was postponed a week to attempt to give my stomach a bit longer to settle. Which, in all fairness, worked. I finally felt better Wednesday morning ... which was the morning of the start of this last round ... O.o
So on the upside I only have one more to go! Tomorrow I am all finished and I have decided I am now a FORMER cancer patient. For serious. If the results come back next week showing otherwise I am going to have words with those results until they read correctly. Hear that results??? FORMER cancer patient. Or else.
On the other hand, and again in all fairness I was warned it 'could' happen, I can't ignore the hot flashes and lack of a menstrual cycle anymore. I tried! I really, really did try, but it seems in this case chemo won and I have gone into way premature menopause. Which while on one hand I am kind of going "Yay!" cause no more cramps and bitchy and generally uncomfortable and restless. On the other hand I am only 35 and kind of had considered the possibility of another child when I was better. This last point made worse by Mathew also having considered it and he is only 26.
Kind of depressing really. And yeah, I know there are other options, some of which he and I have already discussed. We will see what happens.
I do want to say a quick thank you to everyone who leaves comment of support. I appreciate them, more than I can actually put into words, which is why I don't respond. There are no words. Just thank you.
I do owe everyone new pictures here soon. My hair has started to come back. It is lol-worthy. For serious.
