There are many traditions on the last day of chemotherapy. It is often a happy time when patients have pictures taken with their oncology nurses and ring the bell as they leave the infusion area. For many, the bell is symbolic of the completion of cancer treatment and the beginning of the rest of their lives as cancer survivors. After the bell, survivors often go home wondering what they can do to be healthier and reduce their risk of recurrence.
化疗的最后一天有许多传统。这通常是个欢乐的时刻,患者会与肿瘤护士合影,并在离开输液区时按响铃铛。对许多人来说,铃铛象征着癌症治疗的结束以及作为癌症幸存者开启余生。按完铃铛后,幸存者们常常回家,思考自己能做些什么来更健康并降低复发风险。
