THE END!
THE END! Hi all you out there who’ve helped me along the way over the last 19 months. - wot a long rollercoaster of a journery it has been.
I have now had my last infusion of Herceptin after lumpectomy, mastectomy, chemo and herceptin and I must say that I did cry buckets when I left hospital on Friday.
The finality of all the treatment/operation/clinica/blood tests and endless canulations had finally got to me.
What a relief to have my life back after 19 months.
Of course I still worry WHAT IF!!! don’t we all but I’m trying not to let it rule my life. I’m so happy not to have to attend hospital every 3 weeks - on my day off too! - that I wept with joy on Friday. Wot a relief - i’m now just on checkup every 6 months with breast surgeon and also oncologist. They;ve both been wonderful and at 41 I intend to start to really enjoy life. Afterall I can’t worry about tomorrow cos I can’t change what will be can I. !!!
Thanks again for all your wonderful support, I’m sure I’ll be on line again when I;m feeling a bit low

Well done Hi Clemy,

Hi Clemy
Just wanted to say congratulations and to wish you well on your life now without quite so many hospital appointments. I always celebrate my end of treatment each year as a reminder of how far I have come. Living with “what if” does get easier as time goes by and I really try to live the best day everyday.
Take care and enjoy!
