Goodmorning, it is now 3am. I have been up forever! Too many thoughts going through my head. I start chemo on Monday, get my port put in tuesday. I will be getting topotecan, on 1 week off 2 for a series of 8 treatments. Then we'll take a look and see if I can take another break or if we should continue getting treatments.

Take Care and God Bless you all! You are all such a blessing to me.

    Bonnie, I read your other message about the chemo being cancelled. I remember how upset I got when I found out they were going to administer so many drugs during my first session, some of which I hadn't heard about before. It's an unfortunate trait of many medical folk, I'm afraid - making assumptions that leave us out in the cold. I hope you gave them an expression of your displeasure!

    Hi Bonnie,
    I also know how disappointing it can be to have things cancelled. Hang in there - and yes, we are ALL thinking of you and keeping you in our thoughts.
    Be well,
