last chemo today... hopefully

today is the eighth and final chemo treatment. wow. i never thought it would come around so fast.

fingers crossed though, i have a cold, sore throat, sneezes and streaming nose (well, the streaming nose has been a chemo feature all along). when i spoke to the nurse yesterday she seemed to agree with me that unless i had a fever it would be alright. but i have spent the last week, both before and since the cold took hold, worrying that something would happen and i wouldn't be able to have the last treatment on schedule.

Bill leaves for Chile in less than a week. i expect to be at my lowest point when he leaves and pick up a couple of days after. if my treatment is delayed, it will mean i go through my whole low point while he's away. not good.

fingers crossed all round, please?

Never thought I'd be wishing you chemo, but there. And the time's past now, anyway.

I've already read your update, but thought I'd add that my life might just have settled down enough to make it to knitting in the next couple of weeks. Also might be able to meet up somewhere at the weekend while B is away, if you are looking for diversions.
