3 More Weeks......


It is 11pm. I had chemo today. I am tired. Very tired. I have very little patience left in me today. I have 3 more weeks of chemo left and frankly...I am SO done with chemo or as my Ma says..."la quimo"!

I am ready to quit chemo right now! 3 more weeks is not that long of a wait. I've had 2 courses of 6 months of "la quimo", 5 weeks of radiation and 3 MAJOR (as Posh Spice would say) surgeries. So why are the last 3 weeks feeling like an eternity. Probably because I AM DONE WITH CHEMO. I am sick of chemo, I am sick of saying chemo. CHEMO, CHEMO, CHEMO....CARAJO...CHEMO!!!

Yes, I am pretty done with chemo and I can't get to 3 weeks from today fast enough. I recently had a PET/CT and they say all looks good. Have I formally introduced you to the all important THEY. THEY are....my oncologist, my oncologist fellow and most recently an ENT Specialist, and let's not forget my Infusion Nurse she is part of the THEY team. All great people and I have grown attached to them. But frankly I am DONE with them too. I NEVER want to see them again EVER. Hey...don't get me wrong...these peopple are WONDERFUL and I owe my healthiness to them. Yet again.....I AM DONE with THEM, with "la quimo", with infusions, with Dr. appts, with CAT Scans, Pet Scans, colonoscopies, my hair falling out and my nose bleeding, all the drugs....all the side effects, the fatigue, the memory loss, the neuropathy, the twitching and the cramps and most of all.........brace yourselves. I am done with cancer. Fuck cancer. Doesn't cancer know it was not invited to my party. Anyway....I'm done with this blog. ;)

My love, I know what you're going through only because Jenny Saldana a writer I work with, wrote a whole play about it. Her story is both hilarious and painful. I'm going to forward her your blog entry. I think you need to meet each other. Thank you for sharing and continue on sharing. I'm here if you ever need me.
