The Journey Now: Part 8 -- Homestretch

Day 88!


 Yes, I'm thrilled to say that. It looks like I might be on the homestretch. 

 I can't be sure. I have to keep those Neutrophil numbers up. I barely made it by this week: my number was actually just too low; my doctor signed off anyway. She also stepped up my doses of Neupogen: I'll be getting three, the last one scheduled today. With some Irish luck, there will be no further delay.

 One more Abraxane dose.

 One more week of the up and downs; one more sick Sunday. Fewer rollercoasters. More hair. Less phenomenal joint pain. Fewer bloody noses. No masks when I go out. Back to work...so happy to be there! I will rejoin the human race.  

 I simply can't wait.
