I had a consultation appointment today with a Radiation Oncologist. Well, we were given really good news at the appointment. The Radiation Oncologist told us that he recommended that I complete ONLY 3 cycles (6 treatments) of chemo and then 17 days (3 weeks, 2 days) of radiation to follow. I had initially thought that I would be completing 6 cycles of chemo (12 treatments), so I was delighted by the news. That means that my LAST chemo treatment will be December 21 - just in time for Christmas. Kindof like an early Christmas present :-).
We just came home from dinner. We went with Monica, Frank, and Cheryl to B.J.'s. The food was great, but I must say that the Pizookie was the highlight of my dinner - THANK YOU Cheryl. It was nice to get out of the house as we had been indoors for the past 3 days due to the fires. Monica, Frank, and Melissa leave for Dublin, Ireland tomorrow to run the marathon with Team in Training (Lymphoma & Leukemia Society). I wish them the best of luck.
Tomorrow is my appointment to have my PICC line inserted. I hope that goes well.
