Last Chemo Treatment!!

I truly can't believe this time has come!  When I began this journey in March, September 20 seemed SO far away! This treatment was, of course, worse than the last.  I had trouble with nausea, my hands, my feet and my throat.  Everything is a little better, but my feet and hands are still numb.  I thought typing this would help exercise my hands and make them feel better.  It really hasn't helped.  :(  
I really feel better each day and thank the Father for his grace and love.  I thought it was wonderful when my doctor told me that I had tolerated this chemo better than any other patient he had. That was such a blessing!   I knew it was because of all of you loving prayer warriors!

Chemo - Next to last treatment!!

This treatment went better than the last!  They gave me a nausea pill before the treatment even began, then I took two in the next two days.  It helped the nausea, but it was still pretty bad.  It took until today for the nausea to die down.  The biggest thing now is the numbness of my hands and feet. My hands are a little better, but my feet are still numb up to the middle of my calf. It's still very difficult to swallow, too. I was warned these side effects could happen, and I know so well it could be SO much worse!   I am so very thankful for how the Father is continually bringing me through this and growing me in Him!
  
Thank you for all the prayers, calls, cards, food, etc.!!  Each one has been such a blessing.
