Steve,

Sorry to hear that Sarah is back in the hospital. Hopefully, she will only be there a day or two until they get her kidney problem resolved. As to Sarah having the reserve for chemo. You'd be surprised at just how much reserve us women have. I myself have not had doxil but from what i've read from other women it's not too bad. Hang in there. Sarah is fortunate to have you by her side. What she needs right now is all the support you can give her. I'll keepher in my pryaers. Please keep us posted.
