    Hi Sue,
    You must be reading my mind. I too have been thinking of Linda and wondering how she is doing.
    Also Sue...I just read a post from you in the other forum about your sister. I tried to reply but something kept knocking me off.
    Your sister has been through so much. I have been thinking of her (and you). Having gone through all she has gone through and then having her husband pass away....I just don't know what to say. Please tell your sister that I am thinking of her.
    How are you doing Sue? I sure hope Linda checks in also.
    I have not been on this board or any board for a while so it was great to see your post here.
    Hope to hear from you soon!
    Kristen

    Hi gals, thank for checking up on me! The cancer was pretty bad in the liver over 75 percent of the liver had some cancer plus two large tumors, after four treatments with taxterene and carbopallium, both spelled wrong, some thing never change! Also had a couple spots on my bones and a enlarged node in my chest. They did a CT after four treatments, the bones were clear, node half the size and liver tumors reduced by 50 percent. I have chemo two weeks on and one week off, kind of hard but keep up the house and meals, don't work in my kennel, husband is feeling a bit over worked. We are praying for complete healing after all Jesus died so we wouldn't have to be sick if we can believe strong enough God will heal. I have had seven chemos so far bloodwork is better, liver function is better and the CA tumor marker has gone from 1140 to 480. How is Jade? It does sound as if when a person gets cancer more and more trouble follows, my husband had prostate cancer in 2003 where I had the first bc in 2002. Keep me in your prayers as I will your sister Sue and all the rest of us fighting for our lives and good news at every check up. God Bless Linda

    Hi Kristen and Linda,
    Linda I'm glad You checked in , I was getting concerned when I hadn't seen a post from You in awhile. I know we all take breaks from now then ,just wanted to make sure that is all that it is. It looks like the chemo is doing its job-I know it is some rough stuff,one of the chemo's they are giving my sister is the carboplatin I'm not sure what it is mixed with,but she'll have a years worth of taxol to finish up.Keep Your faith - I know it is hard,but take one day at a time,rest when You need it and take extra special care of yourself.The treatments my sister have been given were given kinda like the chemo I had go in for 3 or 4 hours get hooked up and leave going again in 3 weeks the only difference is that they check her bloodwork weekly -with me it was just before the next treatment.
    My thoughts and prayers are with You-keep us informed-God Bless You Too!

    it's always nice to hear from
    you Kristen,I will let my Sister know,she still has alot to go through,thank God for the power of prayer.I hope You are doing well, it is time for me to call and set up appointments for next month-check up time-ugh! not looking forward to it.I will let You know how it goes.
    Ya'll take care and keep in touch.
