We're done! Well at least for now! And let's just be honest here people...CANCER SUCKS! But it also teaches you lots of great lessons! We have truly been blessed through the process.Chad finished up his last treatment on Thursday! I was so sad that I was unable to go with him. I wan't to be there to see him "ring the bell" (something they let everyone do once they finish their treatments) but I was in bed with a kidney infection! He was so happy to be done but admitted that on Friday about 2:30 he started feeling lots of anxiety. By 3:30 it subsided.
He would usually leave the office about 2:30 to head to his treatment which was anytime between 3:30-4:00 p.m. most days. I guess it's something we'll have to work through but hopefully most of the side effects and mind games will dissolve over time!
He's still nauseated and has some heartburn and cramping but otherwise is really looking forward to feeling better!
Again, THANK YOU for all your love and support! We're almost out of the woods with this. Follow up treatment will consist of additional chest xrays, blood work and frequent check ups with the urologist!
For now we're "ON OUR WAY" to full recovery!!!!
