John done with chemo Oct 19th

[PennyK]

16. It will just take time.

My situation is very different...breast cancer, chemo, mastectomy, and now radiation and herceptin once every three weeks, but I can see it will take a long time to get past the treatment.

I found a toenail in my slipper today! And I had no clue there had even been an issue with my toenails.

Your guy's had a rough time. I had some sort of an infection near the end of my chemo, and I also had to go in for a blood transfusion. I'm on blood thinner, because my port caused a blood clot. That meant I couldn't have reconstruction right away.
The herceptin is giving me joint pain, and in addition to limping around like an old lady, I get random cramps in assorted joints.

But we're alive. My daughters are coming to me for Thanksgiving, the first time I'll be seeing them since my cancer escapade has started, and it's going to be so good to spend time with them. Hope they don't freak out when they see my hair -- still too short to be called a crewcut.
