Done

I had my last dose of Abraxane on Friday Oct. 5. The nurses gave me a nice little send-off. It's going to be weird not going there every week.

Instead of feeling relieved, I'm feeling very vulnerable. I read that many breast cancer patients feel this way. While you are in treatment you feel like you are "doing" something to keep the cancer away. You somehow feel safe and protected. But when treatment is over, what is to keep the cancer from coming back?

So let's turn to humor. I have peach-fuzz all over my head. It's quite unsightly. Bald looks better. But I guess if I ever want hair again I have to get thru this stage. My hair has always grown fast so I hope that trend continues. And I'm really looking forward to having eyelashes and eyebrows!
