Hey Chrisy
Sorry you've had a rough week. I like the visual
of the cancer cells grabbing their little throats, and
then falling over, kicking their feet, and slowly
succumbing to the monoclonal antibody with a
toxin kicker - Hollywood style.... with cardboard
Barry watching and smiling.

Are you given two extra-strength Tylenol before
your treatment? I was given that before each
Herceptin tx. for the headache, possible fever,
flu-like stuff.

I'm glad you get to relax now in the balmy weather -
really, I'm glad, I'm okay with it, really, don't think
twice about me, I'm fine here, it has warmed up a
bit today, no windchill, cloudy, snowing, around -20,
almost Spring-like.

Hope next week is less eventful for you, and thanks
for the update - we are all thinking about you.
