This is a huge goal, but if I know anyone who can achieve the seemingly impossible it's you. In my own, smaller-scale version, Gina and I are going to do a Triathalon sprint together as a band!

Drew, congrats on having chemo behind you and Happy Birthday next week! I'm still working on radiation. Today was #8/16. Almost there after Stage II Hodgkin's. We're survivors the second they tell us we have cancer, because we don't let cancer take us down. We're taking it down! I found some fleece sheets this week and have vowed to buy every cancer patient I know a set. No one knows except us what chemo does to you, how it makes you feel. My hair (when I had it) even hurt. Keep on keepin' on, man! God bless you.

You're an amazing and courageous person to put yourself and your feelings out into the world. I can appreciate your positivity because without that there is no hope. I survived a near terminal blood disorder when I was 13 and through the support of my parents and prayer and positive thinking, I beat it. I'm now 50 and staying healthy through alternative preventative medicine (acupuncture, network chiropractic care and feldenkrais). You go Drew, rest up, gather your strength (physically, mentally, emotionally) and continue on your path to getting well and staying well. God Bless You.

I don't know you, but I'm very very happy for you. Watched my mother die with complications of cancer and heart disease. She never got to start her chemo treatments. I'm ok with that, and I do blame the cancer. Stay strong and know that as many people that have touched your heart; you have touched thiers.

Lots of love and positive energy.

Congratulations Drew!! My mum also just got the all-clear for bladder cancer just THIS afternoon too! We just drank the bottle of champagne that I've been saving since my 18th birthday. I've been blaming her cancer for everything too, and evidently it works! Take a break, you deserve it.

Oh, I almost forgot. What else helped was my pink Nintendo DS. It was mindless fun and kept me busy while sitting in doctors' offices. I have one year down and four to go before I am considered cured. Wait until your hair starts to grow in. That was fun seeing the 'new' hair. I had curly hair for the first time in my life. After awhile it went back to its normal straight self.

chemo brain, it has been 2 years since I finished chemo and I still have moments of HUH? I don't mind losing my breasts to cancer, they were heavy. I do mind that my potty belly is no longer chamoflauged and sticks OUT! Where did that come from. Phenergen was my best friend throughout chemo. I slept through the first 4 days. Who needs to be awake when you want to puke. I am glad to hear you are finished with chemo. No one should go through chemo alone. I couldn't do it. My mom had to move in with me for 3 LONG months.
