Geterdone is done! 48 weeks completed

Well, I never thought that the 48th standard shot would ever get here but here it is. I still have a week of riba to do but It just seems like yesterday this all became a blurr then to realize almost year has passed since the first shot yet there is still more to do, but the 48 marker is the sweetest of all. I have received my last shipment of meds for the 5 week taper down period and when all said and done it will be 54 weeks to final completion. Thank You All! for your help and support through out this journey and answering my many questions about treatment and the meds we are taking. Life is like a box of chocolates, ya just never know what you’re going to get and by looking back at my past post, there have been a verity of flavors. It has been an experience that I hope I will not have to repeat for we all give it our best shot and hope for the best.

Amen to that! Ant B... Hum… Simon and Garfunkel - Going Home, a very good song for the journey and before you know it, you’ll be standing at the other end of the tunnel with all the sunshine and glory knowing that your spirit was always there to help you along the many paths that twist and turn along the way as well as the many people here that are on the same train or have disembarked but are still on the platform to help support and guide everyone through the gates of the troubling times ahead. Best wishes to you and hope the journey is easy for you.

Bet you like your new 'handle'. I got goose bumps, reading post after post congratulating you. As a passenger, still standing at the station,(waiting to get on the train), I see the light at the end of the tunnel.  Both through your eyes and those of all your tremendous supporters. As I wait to start my own journey, I feel like the little kid at the end of the line where we all had to go and get a POLIO SHOT. Back in the days, before they put the vaccine on a sugar cube and you got to eat it. Back in the days when there WAS polio, (other than in third world countries). I pray that in our lifetime, Hepatitus, AIDS, and many other devastating illnesses go the way of Polio, Mumps, measles, and rubella. Best wishes with a SUV, Noobie Ant B
