Another Closure

A nurse called this afternoon and asked if I need a check-up. I said I was fine and don't need one. I told her my treatments are over and only taking maintenance pills for the hormonal therapy. So the nurse said she'll pop over our place to close my files with their agency.

When she came I invited her to stay a little bit and chitchat. They've been part of my life these past few months and I felt a chat was a nice way of ending our short-lived relationship. I forgot her name but she's nice the same with all the homecare nurses who helped me. I told her what's been happening and the good news I've had recently. She's quite happy for me. Apparently, she also had a battle with the big C. She knows exactly how I feel. It was reassuring that what I'm feeling is normal and the fears of the unknown, natural. Anyway I enjoyed our conversation. She even gave me a hug before she left. What a nice lady.

I'm thankful these nurses helped me these past few months. They're dedicated, sincere and caring. They made my treatments a little bit easier.

It is another closure for me. It felt great! It felt like I closed another chapter of my life. One that I never want to experience again.
