Re: Chemo 1 Done!

Great idea about the journal. I kept one all thru treatment and still do. I used it like a scrapbook, collage, journal. Glued in cards that I was sent. Had friends write in it. It was good for note taking and doctor visits. Inspirational quotes. The works! Keep it up. It will be a real chronicle.
