...of treatment! I can’t believe this day is finally here, and gone! I was like a little kid at Christmas today. I was actually excited to go get my last radiation! lol And chemo this week was actually tolerable. It seemed to take forever, but now its over! OK, so do other hospitals have bells? All the treatment areas have bells, and when you leave your last treatment you ring the bell. Tuesday after chemo I didn’t feel like ringing it. It was weird. I thought that cancer had crept into my life quietly, so why not get rid of it quietly? But today I almost rang the bell off the wall! I think I actually skipped out of the hospital…
Robin and I had a nice dinner to celebrate. And the celebration will continue into the weekend. Oh, sweet relief!
My rad onc told me to wait at least two weeks before trying to get back to work. She said I’ll actually feel worse in the coming week. I dunno about all that. I don’t know what I’ll do with myself. Just try to build my strength up. Well, all the excitement of the day has got me pretty tired. I’m off to bed to start healing!

Congrats! God Bless You!
Dear Lisa; I hope you rang the bell so hard it doesn’t need to ring for anyone anymore. Bless you for feeling the quiet reserve tht so many of us agree. Came in like a lamb crept up like a lion. God only knows how you and others have tolerated the dreadful chemo. It is beyond my thinking how mankind can pass this off as a way of tolerating and surviving cancer. I hope for all our sakes that the strange happenings that have been reported in the sky, something that might resemble a higher being are really true and part of our next venture. Do we really think that mankind will conquer this cancer knowing that it all is for the corporate gain? No I think not! We need a new approach, where money has no part of the success of a cure. Maybe prayer is all we really need but that still won’t give the magic cure. Bring on the outer space creatures I say and let’s get a move on …Unless we have the brilliance of a Louis Pasteur or Saulk. Well back to you. Bravo for making another giant leap for yourself and mankind. It is only with yours and others that this cancer will move to another forgotten disease like polio. If there is strength in numbers we have that on our side that’s for sure. So glad you are through the misery and pain of chemo. For anyone to say it is not that bad must be kidding others or trying to kid themselves. Congrats. Enjoy the new you. Love Weezie
Whoot! Congratulations :D. Time to start feeling like the old Lisa hm?
My best wishes and prayers.
Hey Lisa, just checking in tonight to see how folks were doing, and saw your good news! Hope you feeling better everyday.
You’re in my thoughts,
SB
I am so happy that you are getting back to your life!

Hi Lesa,
I am so happy that you have reached the end of treatment. I remember how good that felt. I wish you the very best in the coming weeks and months.
THANK YOU. It helps to know that I am not alone in this vision change problem. Did they tell you it would go away or get better? Do you still have it now? I have it every day and it changes several times a day. My eye surgeon said to wait a month before we did a glasses prescription to see if things change.
I can adjust to it if I know it will always be like that. It is just the “not knowing” that bothers me, I guess.
THANKS AND ENJOY YOUR NEW FREEDOM FROM TREATMENT.
My love, thoughts and prayers will be with you.
Hugs,
Joyce
Hi Lisa,
