So nice to hear from you. I am sorry you are having a hard time with chemo. I did too right at the third round of both A/C and Taxol. Keep your chin up, you can do it.

My daughter lives in Lombard. I would love to meet you when you are feeling better. We are off to SD to provide childcare for our newest grandson most of April. Maybe when I get back you will be feeling a bit better.

We did do lunch, in Feb. We had a total of six Her2 sisters. We met at the Cheesecake Factory in Oakbrook, not far from you. We had a great time and plan to get together again the beginning of May. We would love to have you join us. So nice to sit with others who really understand what you are going through. We are all at various stages of treatment and recovery.

Where are you getting treatment? I did all my treatments at Rush. I go in the 28th for a muga, and to see the surgeon and onc.

I will say an extra special prayer for you tonight. God Bless you.
