Chemo done diddy done done done

I did it I took the last chemo! I was ready to quit after 4 as I was soooooooooo sick (I did tell you how sick I was right?) I showed up at the Oncology ward in my black bobbed wig (Dr. Bourques fav). With a huge cake for all the angels who looked after me. The thing that was so sad is that so many new patients we're there and they are so young. Young men in their 20's young women in their 30's. So young.
I was the first one there on Wednesday, the nurses who usually looked after me we're out sick 3 of them!!! I felt like a three year old again wanting to say Betty do it or Lisa do it!! But someone new administered the chemo and I did fine.
I hung up my leather jacket and decided to take off my wig and hung it on the same hook. Dianne one of the nurses got a charge out of that. I really don't think I just do and if I can make someone smile while I'm in there then its been a good day.
Frank came early to pick me up. I think our cheeks we're hurting from smiling so much that this was the last one. Oh and that the pic line was coming out of my arm. Frank for 5 months has been afraid of hitting my arm in his sleep and hurting me. I had no idea how this had affected him I mean I knew he didn't like it, but Wednesday evening I went to take a bath and I went to put a bandaid on it and he freaked "NO" you're done with bandaids on that arm...."alrighty then".
Robert my son was so relieved to have chemo done as well. He said to me that he hoped I had gotten enough attention from him, but that he had found this whole journey tough. Grade 12 is a tough enough year, but he knows he will one day have a friend who will have a mother or a sister or cousin going through this and he will know how to help them.
I know alot of my friends are happy I'm done as well, so many have actually felt they have had my symptoms. My lil sister Jennifer during chemo 1 had canker sores the whole week, she didn't know these we're side effects....she says to me "great I'm going through chemo"!!!
I've had friends travel from Saint John and other neighboring towns to have lunch with me. those aren't going to stop!! So much laughter so much sadness so many tears but I'm done diddly done done done.
