YIPPEEE!!!!

Congrats on finishing your treatments today, Wendy!!!! Im so proud of you. smile I know you struggled and how difficult this was for you. Time to rest and focus on your intake. If you notice anything different that pops up dont hesitate to call your medical team and get checked out. Of course, you can continue to post here, ask questions or read and absorb info.

In only a few more days/weeks you will be feeling a little better. One day you will wake up and feel almost normal, you will be surprised at finally feeling ok for a change. Recovery can be a long and frustrating time. We can never recover as quickly as we think we should. Keep focusing on your intake and it will pull you thru til the time comes when you are feeling more like yourself again.

Let the healing begin!!!
