Only two more now!!!!

Tomorrow is number 11 of 12! I can't believe it...but I'm ready for it. I'm so ready to be done with chemo!

Henry learned to "finger knit" at school today and made me a chemo scarf this evening to take with me tomorrow. I can't wait to wear it for my last two sessions.

My toes are still tingling from the numbness, some days are worse than others, but the glutamine really does help. I just hope it goes away quickly after the Taxol is done. Unfortunately, the "little infection" in my toe wasn't as small as I had thought. My oncologist put me on an antibiotic for it last week and I went to see the podiatrist Monday, I swear he cut off half my toenail! Thankfully my toe is feeling a little better. I think my side effects have been pretty minimal through all of this, but sometimes it feels like there's always something. I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but this chemo thing is really a pain in the ass!

On the plus side, I'm getting a lovely head of hair. It's really fuzzy and it sticks up all over the place, cowlicks everywhere! It gives me a good laugh and something to look forward to. I'll post another picture of it soon.

I hope everyone is doing really well.

Much love and Peace ~
