Last year I was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer. I had to go through many sessions of chemotherapy, and finally, tomorrow is my last treatment. I have mixed emotions about this. I've gotten so used to the pain, I nearly forgot that I was going through chemo, yet I'm also very excited. I can finally grow my hair out long again.
Around the same time I was diagnosed with cancer, one of our llamas, Cocoa Cup, had a tumor also. She's still alive today, and is pregnant with a cria. I think that I should follow Cocoa Cup's life (well except I won't have a kid), but I need to move on with my life. I feel like I'm mooching off of my parents' money, lol.
I am probably going to work as a vet or a veterinarian's assistant at Flying Cloud's Animal Hospital. I have my interview in a few weeks, and I'm very excited! Fun fact: they've treated five elephants in the same week.
So, alas, g'bye cancer!

Thank you everyone. I am at the hospital's Starbucks right now and I have my treatment in an hour. It'll be so weird not going to the hospital all the time, I'm a little scared, but I think that it's time for a positive change.
@ d i m i r h e x: I'm glad that your mom survived. Cancer isn't a fun thing, and it feels so good when you get your last treatment. emotion_bigheart
