Well...maybe I am a little RELIEVED!!!

Turns out, I AM relieved that this cancer treatment is finally OVER!! I woke up today like it was Christmas. Extra early. Couldn't go back to sleep. Lately, I've been running again and thought that I would take an exercise vacay this morning. Sleep in. Relax. It's my last day of radiation treatment. Been a crazy year. I deserve a break.

But at 6 am when I was about to roll back over in bed, I thought, hell no. Today is MY DAY!! I am going to treat myself in the best possible way and the first part of that mission is to get my ass out there and hobble my tired out of shape self to the end of the neighborhood to see the pink clouds and the sun rise and THANK GOD FOR THE AMAZING DAY. So I did. And seriously, if you live in south Austin and see the crazy one booby bald lady trying to make it up the hill, don't worry, it's just me... and I'm going to make it. Don't feel bad for me, or pull over and ask if I need help, or even think, man, if she can do it, so can I. Well, maybe you can think the 3rd one (and you can also laugh and point a little bit if you want! haha. I am quite the sight out there!).

Jonathon, Aunt Stinky, Aunt Boog and my little monkey, Austin, came for my last and final radiation treatment. The therapists have a little celebration for the final round...they toss confetti and do a little 'woohoo!' I never told yall, but they do the same kind of celebration in the infusion room. The nurses ring bells and all cheer as patients walk out from their last chemo infusion treatment. I declined my last chemo celebration. I just wanted to sneak out of there like none of it ever happened. haha. I even went to my last treatment alone so no one had to decide if they should cheer or cry or both with me. Well, this time, I rallied my team and decided that we should do all of the above! I started ugly face crying before I even got a sprinkle of confetti on my head. Wanted to share the celebration with you because I felt like each of you deserved some confetti too!! Just cannot tell you how thankful I am for the day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Isn't that sweet?! Austin and I say it all day long (he's usually thankful for the food and I try and point out some of the 'and our many blessings' parts). heehee.

WIN THE DAMN DAY folks.
Love
Jenn
