Allelujia!!!! Last chemo-done!

Thanks for all your prayers for me during my chemo - I just had my last "cocktail" today and expect my next few days, I'll be a little tired with minimal symptoms.  I do still have tingly fingers on my left hand, but hey- I'm right handed!  Another benefit is my fingers don't hurt when I play my Uke, since they are numb-ish.  When I came out of the pod to ring the bell (which means I am DONE with Chemo), all three of my sons were there and Songzi and Dylan and Sofia.  What a great support and surprise.  Also, thanks Melissa and Maribeth  for not bringing the my new grandbabies...too many germs!  I know you were there in spirit!

My next step is outpatient surgery on January 23rd - I go in at 7am and have a couple of pre-op procedures, and then at 10:30 the lumpectomy.  All my doctors feel they got a lot of shrinkage of the tumor and can barely feel it.  After recovery, I go home to my heavenly bed and thank my lucky stars!

When the bell is rung, everyone stops to clap!
Like the saying on the plaque....

My family support in front of the "DONE" Bell!

I will have radiation in another 4 weeks after the surgery....for 6 weeks, every day......ugh!  Let's not jump the gun.....thanks for asking about me when I don't blog....when my family arrived from China, my time has just flown by!  But all my followers are in my constant prayer as well - and a special shout out to Uncle Henry and Aunt Em - you both are the greatest!

All will be well .
