It's not that I'm counting down or anything, but...

Today exactly in 1 month's time we'll be done with treatment. By this time on the 11th of September, Bianca would have taken her very last Mercaptopurine tablet (hopefully for ever). Today in exactly 1 month from now Bianca will have been timed after supper for her chemo medicines for the very last time because by the next day she won't have to wait 2 hours after supper with no eating and drinking so that she can have her evening chemo. It will be a Friday evening and so we'll have a great start to our weekend.

Now just to clarify - when I say "done with treatment" it will be the chemo and steroids we'll be done with and the 3 times a day acyclovir tablet as far as I know. The co-trimoxazole (the antibiotic we do twice a week two times a day) will continue for around 6 months as they will wait for her lymphocytes to recover. It is only then that Bianca will be at a lower risk of developing a particularly risky form of pneumonia. Right now her lymphocytes are sitting around 0.22 or something and they'll want it to be above 1 or something like that. And I understand the monthly IVIG transfusions will continue for around 3 months. But no more chemo and no more steroids.

Wow, so incredibly unreal...
