It has been a bit fraught at times but I'm well and waiting for my hair to come back properly and we're getting there.

Onwards and upwards from here on in!

briggy, I hope you can celebrate not long after with a good meal you'll really be able to enjoy, and with buying a new hair brush. :)

Onwards and upwards indeed.
Keep up the good fight.

I get confused about this time of night, as to what day it is where you live. But assuming that it's Tuesday, there, best wishes for tomorrow (if tomorrow is Wednesday, instead of day after tomorrow, as it still is where I live). The only thing I'm certain of is this: Hope that you have as good a chemo day as anyone has ever had, no problems the day after, and the best everything from here on!

in my oh-so-limited musical knowledge, I would LOVE to write a Broadway- (or London)-scale musical called "Invincible Brigantia!"

You are one of the most indomitable people I have ever met (and I'm so happy we were able to meet, all those years ago!!!)

Please give yourself a good hug from me, and when you get worn out, please have the rest of your family step in when you are ready for more hugs! I am SOOOO happy for you!

Love from your catnippy buddy across the Pond!!!

Congrats!!

I am currently 12 weeks off FOLFOX 6. The scans and blood tests are clear, port flush every 6 weeks and starting to feel better,

Good luck with your journey.

Yay, it should be over by now. Such a good feeling. I'm a 10 year survivor. It feels like forever for your Haiti to come back.

Just be prepared for the first half inch or so to be weird in texture.

Great! All the best. I had a chemo in 1991 and have been through a similar experience. Yes, the first inch of new hair felt weird.

Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts and good wishes. It means a great deal to me.

Thursday was a bit 'off' but much better today and so pleased to reach the end of two and a half years of treatment that seems to have been worth it. I bade my goodbyes to the amazing chemo nurses with choccies, a thank you card and hugs. I'm sad and happy at the same time.

Now to get on with my new lease of life

Best wishes to you
