I just passed the three month mark since my last chemo treatment. I can't believe how fast it has gone by!! I saw my oncologist this past week. My blood tests all came back normal. I get a CAT scan, more blood tests and a colonoscopy in December before I see Dr. Kornfeld again.
My hair is growing back and for the most part I feel healthy. My only real complaint is fatigue. But it's NOTHING like it was while on chemo. It's funny as time passes I start to forget all the symptoms I experience until I talk to a patient who is going through it. My experience has been so helpful when I come across patients going through cancer treatment. I've been able to be a "cheerleader" as many were for me. There's always that fear in the back of my mind that the cancer will return. I suppose that's normal but I try not to dwell on it.
I continue to find joy each day in spite of family challenges. I feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful husband who is so supportive and loving. Life continues to be good!!

I'm so glad to read that you are doing well and able to look back with amazement at how far you've come. What a miserable and wonderful gift cancer treatment is. I had another "good" PET scan in July. This morning I had teeth molds done for getting Invisalign braces. I've always wanted to have my teeth straightened. It is one effort at staking a claim in the future and not worrying about cancer! Best wishes in your continued recovery
