Here we go! Last chemo tomorrow. Fingers crossed I'll also be getting rid of my PICC line after the poison goes in. I've had some tube sticking out of me most of the past six months -- more than ready to be done with that. I'm excited to have nothing to prep before bathing -- no clipping my post-surgery drain bottles to a lanyard around my neck, no stuffing my arm into a waterproof sleeve to keep my PICC dressing dry. It's crazy; a tiny hole in my arm needs to be kept meticulously maintained and sterile, while jagged pencil-sized holes in my sides were just fine left un-bandaged.
Had a great ten days at the cabin, enjoying beautiful weather and nice fires in the wood stove at night. The goldfinches arrived yesterday, and the rose-breasted grosbeaks today. Feeling good, but depleted, and now hopped up on pre-chemo steroids. Two weeks. Two weeks and I'm home free.
I haven't seen many people in the past six months. Updated nude. Accurate.
