5 days post my very last chemo, hooray!!! It's been somewhat difficult to celebrate and feel great about it yet since I've been experiencing chemo-related side effects, (or is it a bad cold?)... I've been a homebody for the last four days, wallowing in the last of the side effects I will have to endure! Glen's been sick also, so all we've been doing is hanging out ordering in dinners, (which I can't taste since my taste buds have gone wonky... For the last time!) The kids have thankfully been extremely forgiving and have played well together, trapped inside while the temperatures plummeted to -30c to -40c. The end of chemo is in sight for us all!
As I stare outside at the blanket of white crispness that has fallen on us this winter, the bright blue sky deceivingly enticing us to play within it, I find myself excited for the future. A future that holds endless possibilities, whereby I'm going to take advantage of all that life has to offer. I will cherish every moment I have with my friends and family, whether it's 40 below, or 40 above, so long as I'm living, I will continue to celebrate life, my life and your life, all of our lives! I will begin with celebrating you my friends, and can't wait to see you all at my 40th celebration. It's going to be the best party ever having you all at there to share in this occasion. It's not just a birthday, it's a celebration of the completion of my chemo, and a celebration of you, my friends and family, who have all offered me comfort, solace, and sanity during the last 6+ mths. And if for some reason you're reading this wondering what the celebration is, it's an open invitation to join me at Nicolino's Orbit Room this Friday, 8 pm onwards! Please join us, there will be live music, dancing, and more!
It's time to celebrate!!!
