Man, I really do suck at blogging. You'd think with as much time as I spend online that I'd at least come & update you.
So, since my last update:
February 1 (the date of my last update) was indeed my LAST chemo treatment!
February 20, I had my repeat PET scan.
February 22, my medical oncologist told me the cancer is GONE! WOOHOO! He said I have a spot of about 1 cm that looks like scar tissue. We celebrated with lunch and then again with dinner (b/c the big kids were at school)!
February 25, I met with my radiation oncologist and got set up for radiation, which included two new tattoos (they are small, but I got ink'd). She said radiation is to blast that 1 cm area where cancer cells could be hiding & to get any other bad cells that may be lurking.
I scheduled to have my port removed on February 28, but Evie got sick, so I rescheduled.
February 28 - Happy Birthday, Evie!
March 2 - Guess who turned 35?! And we had a FABULOUS time at Evie's Spa-la-la birthday party!
March 4 - I got my port removed! WOOHOO!
March 5 - First radiation treatment
March 6-7 - SNOW DAY! Radiation #2 would have to wait. Snow day followed by a day b/c the machine was broken. FUN!
March 8 - Radation resumed.
That brings us to now. I had rad treatment #3 today. 3 down/17 to go!
So far, no side effects of radiation. I meet with the radiation onco tomorrow after my treatment.
