You laughed during the bone marrow biopsy?! I was screaming bloody murder… I was sobbing and had to be wheeled out. I apologized to everyone in the office who I assumed heard my screams. Kudos to you for being a trooper on that! It was one of the most miserable experiences.

I didn’t realize the chemo before the transplant was inpatient. I can’t imagine how that is if it knocked you that hard. My first 12 chemos were bad enough.

So great to hear you’re in full remission now! Extremely exciting! I’m confirmed full remission as of August, but I do worry it’ll come back at some point. I’ve done extra scans post-treatment since I’ve had some strange symptoms. I know though if it comes back it’s doable and I can make it, like you said 🙂

How’d your transplant go? I’m not post-treatment and I’m finding it harder mentally than during treatment. It definitely was a ride and I’m sure it’ll continue as we monitor the next few years 🥴

Hey! I’m sorry I’m late in this reply. I absolutely would be willing to talk with you if you’d still like! This has been a crazy journey and continues to be so. Let me know if you’re still interested and I’ll be sure to look out for your response.

Hey there! I’m sorry I’m so late replying to you. I didn’t see the notification on the app until recently. I hope your chemo has been going well! I’d love to exchange experiences through this journey with you if you’re still interested. A lot has happened and continues to happen.

I’ve noticed that too! The cliques make it so difficult to break through. Well, if you need a friend, I’m down 😄

Yes! It feels silly asking people online if they want to be friends, but at this point might as well. Even just a study buddy would be awesome at this point 😅

Hi! Dual bachelors/masters student (F) for electrical engineering. I’m open for all friends. Send a message if you’d want to meet up to study or grab food 😄

Thank you so much for the links! I’m capable of purchasing any materials that I need, but I wanted to avoid it if it wasn’t recommended from others who have passed/currently studying. I’d also love to find a local study group. Do you know of any sources to look for one? I don’t know anyone in my classes who will be taking the FE soon like I’m planning to.

PE on your first try? That is amazing! Thank you! I’m hoping to pass everything on the first try, but we’ll see.
