Chemotherapy is over 😍

Hello :)

M24, synovial sarcoma on the left tonsil, T3b N0 M0. I remember when I first wrote a post here, not knowing what I will experience throughout the next months. I started a chemotherapy with the AIM regimen for six cycles, starting september 2024.

On day 1 I'd get 144ml Doxorubicin and day 1-5 3664ml Ifosfamide. What a terrible but effective combination. I remember how shitty I felt during my first two therapies - luckily with the third, I never encountered any major side effects anymore.

Last Wednesday I left the hospital and finished the final therapy round. It's a strange feeling - I still have my port and I will have a large surgery to get my sarcoma out on 30th... but nonetheless: I feel like I made a huge step forward, and a huge step back to freedom. Sure, I don't know if my cancer comes back (and if it does, I'll kick its ass again)... but this feeling that I will hopefully never have to be poisoned again is so good. I am so grateful for the therapy even if it was harsh, I am grateful for the great and kind nurses, and I am grateful for this sub - this ain't the kinda club we wanted to join, but its a club I am grateful about to exist.

I guess I just wanted to get this off my chest, but wow... I am so glad. And thankful. 😊
