Chemo is over!

Had my last chemo a week ago. Still adjusting to a new schedule. Got lots of flowers and candy from family, work, and friends. I'm so grateful for all the amazing support from everyone! Now it's a waiting game until my surgery...mastectomy,  on September 18th. Hanging in there and waiting for stage two. Love you all!

I am so happy you have made it to this milestone. If I was near you I would have brought you some no bake chocolate peanut butter cookies. I only make them for special people. Have you decided on a single for double choice? Will continue to pray for you!
