Celebration (Remission): Almost two years after my diagnosis and plenty of sick days through chemo... I was technically in remission. My hospice nurses through me a little party with non alcoholic bubbly, balloons and flowers with my husband and I! Life was good

Side Effects (Depression/Anxiety): When first diagnosed with ovarian cancer, I just had the attitude, "ok, I'm sick, what medicine do I take to get better". It wasn't until preparation for chemotherapy when my Dr. pretty much told me I wouldn't be here this time the following year, that it hit me. He told me I should start making my funeral arrangements so that my family would not have that burden. That is when I slipped into a deep depression. I was afraid and sad, crying all the time. I was going to die and I was only 24. I was not only being robbed of motherhood, but of life entirely.

Drug or Chemo Therapy (Chemotherapy): At the time of my chemo ...cisplatin and cytoxin were still in expeiramental stage I believe. Every 26 (or as my body allowed) days I would be admitted to the hospital for two days.
