Second last chemo treatment

I am at the hospital - for Alfred's second last round of chemo. As always, we pacified ourselves saying that all this is gonna be a distant dream soon - the wait is still excruciating. I dread the routine visit to the hospital - tired of the hospital environment - even more for Alfred who has to endure the havoc-wrecking chemo. Every 2 weeks for the past months - the same process of chemo treatment - altogether 8 treatments - 4 pre-op and 4 post-op - the doctors want to just make sure that if there are any remnants of the cancer cells, the ensuing rounds of chemo treatments should take care of that. Right now, it's just the wait - and also being there for each other.
