I am anxiously awaiting this week, the final big drip! I saw the GP late last week and they are happy with how I am progressing and how healthy I look after five cycles. The 6th and final cycle starts this Thursday and I have a long Easter weekend to recover from it, prior to turning my attention to our trip to Boston.
This weekend was spent "up island" in the Comox valley where Lori ran a half-marathon and came in 6/23 for her age group in tough chilly/windy conditions; her time was better than last year and just off of a PB (personal best) for the distance. She has one more long run before the trip and then she has the long awaited taper and recovery period prior to the trip.
This coming week I have the usual blood tests, a chest X-ray to check the progress of my lung infection followed by an appointment with the Onc and then the final big drip on Thursday. I'll keep you posted as I learn the results of the tests and such.
Thanks
Hey Don -
ReplyDeleteWe've been thinking about you and also looking forward to this 'final big drip'!
We are so happy that you have been and continue to do so well over the course of these treatments.
Congrats to Lori on the half-marathon this past weekend - you go girl!
Looking forward to lots more positive news going foward and seeing you after your trip to Boston.
