I went to book club last night with women who have been among those at the head of the stampede and who have been flying with the angels.  My intention was just to say a quick hello, I hadn’t finished the book, and I’m kinda tired.  I left after an hour and a half. (a quick hello)  As I left there was cheering and chanting  (Ok, maybe not chanting but at least ONE was saying “30 seconds left…30 seconds left…”)  This group has held me and carried so much of this with and for me.

When someone says “You have done so well through this…” I look back and would agree.  I must say, however, that we had a matrix of support.  I’d just change that sentence to say “We have done so well through this…”  There will be plenty of time for me to reflect.  If you’re still reading along, there will be more soon.  As for this weekend, I’m going to enjoy A‘s birthday tomorrow, my twin brother’s birthday Saturday (OK, it’s my birthday too!) and Mother’s Day on Sunday.  There’s nothing like the feeling that this part of treatments will be over today and I have a weekend of celebrations.  Even if I just sit in the peace of my home.

If you want to count down with us, I go in for my last booster at 1:00 EST.  We’ll start at 30…29…28…27…
