time for more chemo

I had 2 doctor appointments today both of which were good.  My first was with a wound care nurse. She is  taking care of my incision pocket and said it was looking good. The only problem is the opening is healing faster than the pocket itself. I will have  it looked at this next Tuesday which is my 6 week exam.
The second appointment was with Dr Liu who is the hematologist and takes care of my chemo issues.  She said my lungs sounded good and all-in-all my healing was going very well!!!  YES!!!!!
She asked me when I wanted to start my next 3 session. I said as soon as possible. I want to get this over with and get back to my life. So I go in for blood work this Thursday and first chemo session Friday morning at 10:00.  Hopefully it will go well like the first 3 sessions, knock on wood!  My last session should be around the first part of September.  By the end of September hopefully I will be in remission, no, let me say that again...By the end of September I WILL be in remission. I cannot wait for this all to be over!!!

Think positve!!!! Remember "The Little Engine That Could" At the beginning of the stoty he said: I think I can, I think I can." At the end of the book he accomplished his goal and was saying "I thought I could, I thought I could." YOU GO GIRL !!
