My sister has a dr appointment on Wed to draw blood and see where her platelet count is and the red and white cell count. Had a tuff weekend. she was not feeling too good. seems better now. She has decided to do the chemo until she can't take anymore. Next chemo will be around Labor day. We have lots of rain coming in today, tomorrow and the next. I like hearing it rain and listening to the thunder and the fresh smell as the rain as it falls. Hope all is doing well and chat with you later.

    I am sorry your sister is
    I am sorry your sister is not feeling well~ I hope she is keeping her medical team in the loop. They want to assist her as much as possible and keep her feeling better so that she can complete her chemo. This is not an easy road, but to stop would not make it easier for her in the long run I am quite certain. None of us likes the tiredness and the nausea, the lowered resistance, etc etc, but if at all possible, we stay with it as we also know these meds are killing the beast. And that really is our bottom line, isn't it?

    Thanks again for being the loving, caring sister you are~we send both of you strength, courage and the resolve to beat this damnable beast!

    Hugs,
    Claudia
