Hi Team Harvey!
Today we hit the biggest milestone yet! Today was the LAST chemo treatment of the 10-month intensive chemo period! (I’ve taken to calling it the 10-month phase of hell)
Starting November 1st we are in Maintenance for two years. This will be visiting the hospital once every three months for a spinal tap and chemo. We will go in once a month for bloodwork. He will take oral chemo meds every day. The goal will be to give him just enough chemo to keep his immune system healthy.
That means no more staying home, avoiding crowds and basically living like we’re in pandemic mode. In fact, we’re heading to our lake house this Friday for the first time since early December!
When we were diagnosed in January this day seemed so far away, so impossible. And here we are! I’m pretty sure your prayers and support got us here!
Thank you for those prayers. Please keep saying them because this fight isn’t over!
Love, Julie and Rich
