Great news Renee.

This thread made me look at the calendar.  My husband's last shot will be Oct 12, 2013!  We are going to plan a family holiday when he is done!  Something super cool that we can look forward to.

Shep, my husband started the broceprevir this morning at 6 am.  We both set alarms on our phones last night!  One phone alert down...plenty to go!

Having only been down this road with my husband for 4 weeks now...I can't tell everyone enough how much reading your posts helps!

Ronna

I loved my first day of being totally med free--turning off those alarms on the phone was simple heaven. Hope your recovery is quick and smooth. Hugs!

Just did a quick rendition of the Happy Dance. I would describe it, but we won't go there. I know you have a week of pills left, but there is something about that last shot that makes for a happy day. Plus, you were doing procrit and/or neupogen for a while, too. I hope this means no more shots of any kind. Now you two can get down to the serious chore of setting up house and settling in. I am so happy for you, and for Linds, too. She has been a real ally for you. I hope you two can put all these trials behind you and enjoy a normal life.

Alan

Finally!  Wishing you calm seas, bright stars and warm breezes.

"Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead."
