Fourth and Final Round of Chemo

Last Wednesday, 7th July, Ellie went back into hospital to commence her fourth, and FINAL, round of chemotherapy. It felt a little surreal getting to this point in our treatment marathon. We know there is still more ahead of us, but it felt pretty darn good to get to this point . And then, yesterday, 11th July 2021, at 6 pm, the nurses hung her final dose of chemo. All of the nurses and her treatment team are chuffed for her, as are we! To commemorate this milestone we made a poster today and put it above her bed. We are so proud of Ellie for continuing to fight the fight!

    Such a milestone! Chemo has been your friend and companion (even though it was sometimes hard to take) for all these months, and now it's done. I just visualized a stuffed dog with long ears named Chemo to remind you of the efforts your chemo went through to kill off all those nasty "blasts", and how you valiantly strove together. Bravo to all of you!
