This is what she wrote on her Facebook page with a picture surrounded by friends:

"Last Sun to lift my spirits l threw a little party at my apt for GMA fam. Next morning I walked through the hospital doors (w my guardian angels, mom & dad, back together and blazing a trail ahead of me.) Start of last week went well but the daily chemo/ treatment caught up to me by the weekend. My body is so weak but not my mind. YOU give me the courage to keep going. So today is my last day of chemo... Wed is called a day of rest, yay, right! The transplant is sched for Thursday morn.   Bless you & Onward! XO"
