In a few hours I will be hooked up for my last chemo. Did you hear me? I SAID, MY LAST CHEMO!!!!
Out freaking standing! It is ok to cheer now and smell the breeze coming off the water and dream of setting down the pack that has been cutting into your shoulders for the past 8 1/2 months. It is time now to dream of a future without side effects. It is time to move on and leave the world of cancer behind and begin to live our normal lives all over again. I know some aspects of our life together will be different because Karen and I will choose to live life with more passion and more purpose. Hopefully with less drama and BS. We will still have some medical stuff to do; follow-up checks that will involve blood work and PET scans to find baselines for monitoring Lynch Syndrome but we will be done with the day-to-day world of chemo and cancer and we are SO glad and thankful.
I want to take this moment before I head off to work to thank all of you: family and friends and unknown blog readers, for your support and prayers and wishes for good health. I know I am better because of your efforts. Thank you.
Peace and love to you all,
Mike

We are overjoyed here in Ga. and will spread the word to the support group here. Does that mean the 'blog' will end also? I hope not. Anyway, congradulations on the last and FINAL treatment. We will 'stay tuned for the rest of the story'! Love you guys!!
