Along with Lacie I sit here and am officially receiving my very last dosage of taxol/herceptin . It's been a long haul especially fighting off the fatigue and the onset of neuropathy . I feel so blessed to have made it to all 12 txs. But now chemo will be in my rear view mirror.

Yeah! congratulations. I am looking forward to that day myself.
So happy for you!!! Hoping it won't be long till the acuteness of tx is replaced by memory of it only. Wishing you well on this journey.
Hugs,
Cathy

Thank you everyone.
Just getting through the chemo I am so happy. I know I still face multiple challenges in the near future but this is one down!
I am so blessed to have family and friends to help me along with great health insurance. A job that is willing to hold not only my position at work with temp workers but will continue to keep my seniority until MD releases me some time in January 2015. Tomorrow I am going in for another Ct scan before surgery in June. Praying that it is good. I am currently stage 3 . I pray for no metastisis . Last ct md saw 3mm nodule on lung but assured me it was bening. Also a cyst (old on ovaries ) ... So a prayer I say. I have gotten this far.
Again thank you all. And as always a prayer out to this board!!!!

I just saw your post. Congrats on finishing, though it's a little hard to celebrate while working our way through the side effects drill. I'm going to really celebrate when I get hungry for a steak and salad! But, we made it, one way or another! Good work to you and thanks for your support.

Congratulations. Not easy, but well worth it. I made it to 8/12 this morning!
Yeah, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I had #6 today, half way through!
If you can do it, I can do it.

You CAN do it JDee! Take it on one week at time. You're 1/2 way there. That is a major accomplishment!!!

Jdee when I reached the halfway mark of my chemo I was so excited and now I'm done with it. I could hardly believe that this day would come. Hmmmm... Just knowing it's here I already feel the chemo brain subsiding lol.
Thank you everyone for the congrats and prayers!
