    Kari, I wish you the best.
    Kari, I wish you the best. Haven't gotten the hand/foot, but the D is familiar. I did the rad first on the hips and spine, but when I was thru, it was my thighs ,calves and ribs that were throbbing, so now I am on Abraxane.
    I am sending you positive thoughts for Monday, and I love your sense of humor. I know that is what gets me thru each day.

    WHAT....I missed something
    Kari i had no idea you were going threw this again...Im shocked and speechless...i must of missed the news while i was off the grid for awhile. Im sooo truely sorry but your an amazingly strong person with an attitude to match. Youve beat it once and had 6 months with NED and youll have him again.
    Im just sorry you have to repeat this again. This is truely troubling for me. Cancer has no mercy and seems to infect the sweetest people. Please keep in touch and let us know how your doing with your outragous costly chemo.
