It’s been exactly a month since I had my last chemo treatment. I have to say that I’ve been feeling better the last few weeks than the last 5 months. My hair even started growing back last week!

The last two weeks have gone by way faster than any point of time during my chemo treatment. I didn’t move back to my house but I did manage to get my car back and have been driving all over the place enjoying my temporary freedom before surgery.

Three months ago I was in really rough shape. When I had my appointment at the Mayo Clinic for the first time, I was running a fever, needed a wheelchair, was coughing like crazy, and had a hard time breathing.

After 4 rounds of intense chemo therapy I look to be in pretty good shape besides being bald.

My last full week of chemo was long and grueling as expected. Tried to change up how I spend my time by buying the book Ready Player One on Monday night. I binge read it and finished the 370-ish page book by Wednesday.

It was national dog day on Sunday and I failed to talk about Speedy on my last blog post! Joannna had a work conference on Wednesday so I asked my parents if we could have speedy back at the house while she was out of town for the next 3 days.
