Congratulations! My life was just extended going through the same exact thing your going to go through. I am 7 months out and life is grand. Be thankful for the small things like popsicles, laughing, and cold wash-clothes when you start throwing up.

Everything will be wonderful. Best of luck to you Amit!

That's awesome. Congratulations! (And jeez yeah not looking forward to the nausea in the coming week but I'll get through it.)

For sure! I assume you have already been through tons of nausea. I relapsed from my original AML treatmeat a few years later and had to undergo transplant. The chemo before the transplant was the worst I have ever had. It was my 11th round of chemo since I started with cancer back in 2008. Just sit up in the morning and eat what you can, rest a lot and always talk to everyone and ask them how their days are going. I found that hearing others pleasures made me get through my experience much easier. Plus it takes the mindset from how crappy you are feeling to how good the future will be for you.
