Unhooked

The last bag of IL2 just finished dripping, so I have been disconnected. I have two more shots to get and then I'll be DCed from the hospital. Looking forward to heading home, though I am feeling tired and fatigued. Thanks for keeping up with me during my 4th hospital stay.
Love,
Erica

Dude, you are kicking some serious butt over there. Way to go--you are finished with this phase of your treatment!!! So glad you are coming home soon and I can't wait to see you. Will arrange for a visit soon. School is almost out and then I will have more time. Love you and always praying for you. God is holding you in the palm of His hand.
Love,
