I had 9 treatments total, and because I am feeling some numbness in my left hand (and I fell out of Mike's truck because I could not hold onto the handle with my numb hand....bruised A$$!) the doctor decided to stop my treatment yesterday and told me I am finished....just like that. I was elated and frightened at the same time. Elated cuz let's face it....NO MORE CHEMO. But frightened and anxious because I only completed 9 treatments...we were suppose to do 12.....did we get it all?????? But the doctor tried to reassure me that 8 -12 treatments is what they consider a "full dose" so I am well within the limits to stop. Plus I don't want a numb left hand for the rest of my life. My typing would take a huge nose-dive.
Thank you to my friend Karen for driving me...we had a great time. She reminded me of some of the stupid things I did when I was younger. I, of course did not remember some of them and had to laugh cuz I really was a little shit at times!!
Thanks for such a wonderfully fun day, with great news!! Let's do it again, sometime soon :)
