Today was the big day!! My last day of chemo:) I had so much fun at the hospital today! I loved giving my nurses and doctor the baked goods my mom and I made them! They even had a surprise for me!! I slept for most of the treatment, but it was such a good feeling when my nurse took my final IV out.
Wednesday: Last Day of Last Treatment
I had the biggest grin walking into University Hospitals today. I woke up feeling sick to my stomach again, but I did not let that ruin my happiness! I stayed up with my mom baking wonderful desserts and I couldn't wait to share! I first went up to my doctor's office and I was greeted with all of his nurses congratulating me on my last day. It made me so happy seeing how much they cared about my happiness and being done with chemo. After that, I went down to the infusion room, where I receive my chemo. I gave all my nurses their desserts and I got the same reaction from upstairs! They were all congratulating me and telling me how proud they were of me. It really made me feel good and realize that it's the littlest things that can make you happy!
I had to get stuck 3 times today for one of my nurses to find a good IV:( Ouch! It was so painful, but I kept telling myself "Sierra, it's your last day getting an IV. You can do this!" And after I got my IV in, the majority of my nurses came in singing me a song and handed me a balloon and a book for my last day! Inside the book they all wrote me a note. It was the most thoughtful thing I have ever received. I was so happy and it completely made my day!
Once the celebration was over, my musical therapist came in to help me relax and stay calm for my last treatment. He helped me come up with this beautiful song about cancer awareness, and he is going to record it in his studio for me to have! When I get it, I will definitely share and let you guys hear it! It was really awesome!
The rest of my chemo was kind of boring because I slept through the rest of it! All in all, it was a good day and I am so happy I am finally done! All that I have left to do is go get this shot tomorrow that will help bring up my blood count!
I hope you all enjoyed these updates I have been posting about my final journey with cancer! I promise to post more Disney stuff soon!! :)
