My Farewell - Last Words Before Parting

Well, it's been quite a journey these past eleven weeks. My chemotherapy treatments have ended, bringing an end to the need for this blog. It seems so long ago when I started out with my first treatment three days before Christmas. I know I had a lot of reservations about doing chemotherapy back then. But I'm glad I made the decision to go ahead and accept the doctor's recommendations. I know there are no guarantees when it comes to cancer but I'm comfortable knowing I've given myself the best chance against recurrence.

I wish I could say I'm all done with everything related to my cancer diagnosis and treatment, but I still have one more surgery, a period of healing, a head of hair to grow back, and 5 years of hormone therapy. But there will be an end to all this, just like there was an end to the chemotherapy treatments. One day soon I will be able to say it's really over. And years from now, it will be a distant memory. I might even forget how awful the Ensure drink and the salt-and-baking-soda mouth rinse tasted.

And so tomorrow I head back to work. I'm excited but a little bit nervous. I really have no idea what I will we doing when I return. I'm sure I will have a lot of catching up to do to bring myself up to speed on whatever project I'm assigned to next. Staying busy will definitely not be an issue.

When I first considered doing this blog, it seemed kind of silly and I almost dismissed the idea. But I'm glad I chose to do it anyways. I heard from many of you that it really helped to keep you informed on how I was doing. I wish to thank you all for your continuous prayers and support during this trial of mine. It helped to know you were all pulling for me.

I've been thinking that I may start a new blog, a blog about our family...So stay tuned. I'll send a new link when I get it going.

...And that's a wrap!
