Phil and I headed to the cancer agency a little early, parking is a pain in the ass, so I was not going to risk having my chemo delayed one more minute! They were not on schedule today and had no chemo chairs available. I was brought in at 13:00. I had a nurse that was new to me, she was lovely. We got started pretty much right away and she set up to access my port a cath. While she was accessing it with the needle, for no apparent reason I almost passed out. My face drained of all colour and she said "Are you okay?" I said "yes" and then she said "no you're not let's lay you back." LOL. I don't know why I always say I'm fine when I'm really not, I guess I always think it's going to go away. Stupid logic.

The next drug was the new drug called Abraxane. It was going to take 30 minutes to run and then I was good to go! It went in without a hitch and I was unhooked and free to leave. It was such a different round than the last two it was a relief.
My last round of chemo will be on March 13. I am almost there, for this part at least. Fingers crossed that I feel okay over the next few days. I'll keep you posted :P
Thank you for all your text messages and good luck wishes. It really means a lot to have so many people thinking of me and supporting me through this.
Tonight we will celebrate and go out to dinner with the family!
