As Dave and I walked into the Cancer Center this morning, we were greeted by a large inflated colon - yes, colon! We were invited to walk through the colon to see what the signs of colon cancer look like inside the colon. I still couldn't believe we were walking through a colon!
I enjoy reality TV shows and contests. I see the winner having their fireworks/confetti falling from the sky moment. Or the announcer saying, "You have just been chosen as the next . . . ", etc. Well, I had my moment today. No confetti fell from the sky. No announcer - simply the beep of an IV machine signaling my last dose of Herceptin. My cancer treatment is over. I cried and cried. I had Dave and the nurses crying. It is done. "Barbara, now that you are finished your cancer treatment, what are you going to do?" (Disney world may happen later this year, not sure) I am going to . . . go on with my life. A life that has been changed by this experience.
