I just got back from my first chemo treatment. It took from 9.30 till 4 pm.... WOW.
Taxo, Carbo and Herceptin, took longer than I thought, I did not go back to work.
But instead I had something to eat with my friend. She insisted since I hadn't eaten
all day.

I was so terrified at first but then I did what I do when I get nervous. I chatted with
everyone and everybody and surprisingly they chatted back and I even made a friend ;)

All the time I looked at the bag, the fluid dripping in me and picture it was hope,
this visualization really helped me. And when I felt the burn and the surge in my
body, I smiled and thought let the battle begin.

    We have the same cocktail
    Tina,

    I just realized with the exception of herceptin, you will be on the same drugs.
    Let keep in touch and compare.

    Thank you for your lovely word. Warrior princess, I liked it and came up with
    a battle cry " Have Fury". How do you like it?
