Cancer Update: Tuesday

So today went by really quickly!  I didn't seem to have any major problems! :) I only had to get stuck with a needle twice! Then they were able to get a really good IV to use for my chemo :) when I got home today, my mom and I made a surprise for my nurses and doctors! I am soo excited to share it with them tomorrow for my LAST DAY OF CHEMO!!!!! :) :) :)

Tuesday: Second Day of Last Treatment
So today my treatment was at 11am...not as bad as my treatment yesterday (had to be there at 9), but it was still really rough getting up! :( (Just one more day Sierra!). When I woke up, I felt really sick. Normally, when I start chemo I am sick for exactly ONE week. And then on the 7th day I just feel amazing. It is so weird, but that is how it has been going. I am so happy that this is the last week where I am going to have to wake up sick to my stomach everyday!

When I got there, I was able to get a semi private room, which I was happy because I was not feeling well :(. One of my nurses came in to put my IV in. I have a special nurse who does this now because for my last treatment, I got stuck a total of 9 times!!! Today it was only twice, and the second time it was in a vein where I could keep it in for the next day! Although I love doing this (one less day of not having to be stuck), I chose not to do this because the needle was located in a very uncomfortable spot. I knew it was going to keep me up all night! *sigh* SO it looks like I will be stuck once again tomorrow....but on the bright side, it's my last day of chemo, which means....LAST DAY BEING STUCK WITH AN IV!!! :)

My last two treatments (3 days each), I have been working with a musical therapist. My last treatment, me and him started writing a song. We only made the instrumental part to it, and not going to lie..it's really good! :) I am so happy and proud of myself! Tomorrow, me and him are singing the lyrics to the song I made, which has to do with Ovarian Cancer! I am so excited for this and I will share it as soon as it is all done!

Besides being sick, todays treatment went really well. I got through it smoothly with no complications! I am so excited for my last day tomorrow and can't wait to share with you all!

When I got home tonight I made 5 chocolate bread puddings and 3 eggnog cheesecake desserts with my mom for my doctor and all the nurses and volunteers who helped me through this long journey! Seriously would not have been able to get through this without them! #YouNeverFightAlone
