Well. It's official! I'm wearing the pump for my 77th round of chemo. Folfox 6 again with avastin, yay!. It's been over 1 year since I've enjoyed this little treat. Sadly I have to have the pump removed wed at 5pm. But I know I'll see it again in a few weeks. I celebrated by gorging myself at the chinese buffet. I'm sure I'll pay for that later. Happy holidays all.

    wow
    77 just sucks! But, as you know, it's good to have the option, and I'm sure it will do what you want it to. Do you mind my asking what you've been on in the past? It seems I remember you commenting on being on some drugs that aren't typical colon cancer, correct?
