Quite alive~ :XD: Sorry that I haven't been on in forever, but I'm just really burned out. :shrug: So, my treatment ended April 30th. A day after my birthday, figures it couldn't have been a day before! :ohnoes: I'm looking at my last journal and it's so far behind, a lot has happened since then! ^^; Basically, I needed three 1 week-long chemotherapy sessions.
