I have just finished 24 weeks of chemotherapy. It was an emotional roller coaster. The worst thing was the time span, I feel like my life has been on hold. I have lived a very quiet life, which seems to have been full of blood tests, chemo appointments, sick notes and side effects.
My family and husband have faced each step with me and I think it has been harder on them. All along they have just wanted to take it away, make me better, and have felt helpless.
Losing my hair was just awful. It took days to completely fall out and my head was very sore. My husband had to cut it as close to my scalp as he could and he said this was the hardest thing he has ever had to do. It was harder than being told we had cancer. I say we had cancer because he has lived it, apart from taking the medication he has experienced everything with me.
I am now waiting for three weeks before I begin radiotherapy.
