I Can See Clearly Now, The Rain Is Gone.....

May 13, 2009

Wow, I had my last Taxol last Thursday and there are only 2 more left!!!! I know that so many of you are jumping up and down with me!!! Thank you, I can hear your hoorays and fist pumps from here!

My treatment weekend wasn't so bad. Chris let me sleep in both days, my parents helped with the kids and so I never really got that hellish leg pain. I had some pain, but definitely better than the previous chemo session.

I think the biggest change is knowing that I only have 2 more session left (4 more weeks) really makes me feel .... what is the word I am looking for? Sunny? Smiley? Excited? I finally feel like I can get through this!! I just feel lighter in my chest. I feel like the sun is shining on me and I am finally warm. This might not make sense, but it feels good. It has been so rough and so dark for me for the past couple of months, that I feel good (mentally). YES!!!!!

So BRING ON the next treatment (May 21), I am ready for you!! I think I might have figured you out chemo!!! Yeah, I've got your number!!!

So jump with me and whoop it up!! We are almost there!!! Almost there!!!!

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,

I can see all obstacles in my way

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone

All of the bad feelings have disappeared

Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin?

forIt’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothin but blue skies

Look straight ahead, nothin but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,

I can see all obstacles in my wayGone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)Sun-Shiny day. - Johnny Nash
