Journal entry by Mary Lane

Beth completed her 6th and last round of chemo today!!!!

She is so relieved to be done with this part of her cancer journey.  Time to celebrate her staying power and getting through one of the hardest things she has ever done.  She will have to weather through the next 3-4 weeks of all the chemo ups and downs; but it will be a little easier knowing that this is her last one.  

Beth's next steps will be to get a scan, in about a month, to make sure there is no remaining cancer. However, the doctor is very confident that the chemo regimen she was on should have destroyed any remaining cancer cells.  Also, Beth will be on Lymparza for the next two years, as a maintenance drug to keep any potential cells from forming or growing. She is in great hands and we could not be more confident in her Surgeon/Oncologist who remains on top of everything.

So amazed by my sister's strength this past year, she is such an inspiration!  She was given earth shattering news of an illness which was relentless...and kept knocking her down.  However, she continues to get back up and fight the fight. She dries her tears, digs deep and finds her strength to keep going!!

Everyone's love and support has meant so much to her!! Please continue to keep Beth and her family in your thoughts and prayers.    We are just so happy she will be able to have a celebratory dinner tonight knowing there are many more fun and memorable moments to come!!
