Brr… it’s hot outside but freezing in here. Today is my last day of chemo (hopefully forever!!!) but it was a bit of a challenge. I had to eat ice chips and ice pops for an hour and 1/2 straight. The thought is this chemo effects the quickest growing cells in your body - your mouth - and if you freeze it they will not have side effects - ie mouth sores. Mouth sores truly suck and hurt so I did a combo of ice chips and Chloe’s fresh fruit pops - Gotta keep it healthy!
my mouths still defrosting 20 minutes later so hopefully this worked. I won’t know for a few days when my white blood cells drop - that’s when the shit hits the fan.
Tomorrow officially becomes my new rebirth day - not born again - just rebirth. They’re going to give me back my stem cells and the head of the program is coming to oversee it (I’m getting the full treatment)!
still I’m in good spirits and hope to remain that way and positive till this mess is over. There’s so much more I want to do and just when I think there’s no more something great happens.
