Today, Dr West said,"I don't want to overpromise anything, but I think I am going to have really good news for you when we do your scans."
That's my news.
Oh, and he MAY not make me do the last cycle of three, depending on what he sees. Although, he is a bit of a masochist, so he may change his mind. (OKAY, SO THIS WAS A HUGE MISUNDERSTANDING ON MY PART --- I WAS ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE 12 WEEKS, IT IS JUST THAT THE SCHEDULE WASN'T SCHEDULED THAT FAR OUT SO I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING NINE WEEKS, AND THEN WHEN HE WAS TALKING ABOUT FOUR CYCLES, HE MEANT FOUR CYCLES OF THREE WEEKS. CAN I BLAME CHEMOFOG?)
Either way, it looks like we have surely kicked some cancer cells into submission, at least for now.
Happy, happy dance. This news will definitely get me through the rest of the chemo regime.
Couldn't do this without you, my loyal family, loved ones, random blog readers that I don't know but would like to. Big smooches all around.

I am a random blog reader (not really, am a friend of Bex's) and am thrilled to hear your news. Hang in there! My husband and I are coming to Seattle soon, and I will drop some flowers off on your doorstep. You'll have a new stalker!
This is possibly the best news I have ever (and I do mean EVER) heard! Yea, yea, yea! Clearly those nasty cells knew who they were dealing with and got the heck out of dodge. : ) We love you and are SOOOOO happy to hear the good news. Many positive thoughts for some astoundingly positive scans!
