Dear Tracy,
I just read your post and the replies you received and all of the good advice that has been sent your way. My heart goes out to you. Yes, it is a long and hard road, especially with two small children to care for, but that is why you are fighting and why you will get through your treatments.

Take some of the good advice and don't let yourself fall into a depression as that can be a very difficult thing to climb out of. Talk to you doctor and share how you are feeling. It is good that you were able to express your feelings on this board and that is good practice for talking to your doctor.

January can be a miserable month for many and lots of ordinary people are feeling the blues and they don't have anything like the burden you are going through. You are going through a very difficult time and those close to you can't even imagine how it feels.

Just know that you will get through the chemo, and that rads are not half as bad as chemo, and Herceptin alone is a walk in the park compared to chemo, so there are better days ahead for you.
Best wishes to you and your family, stay strong - you can and you will get through it.

Cheers!

Joan
