Re: Getting the ball rolling

Love your spirit, Penny! PTL for all of it! Hope you have a wonderful family holiday and that cancer is far from your mind. Never heard of the new trial drug, but how good is it that you will keep your hair especially with this frigid weather? Guess that sounds pragmatic, but really hair is a "good thing" (as Martha Stewart says) this time of year! I do hope the side effects are null and that the stuff works on those liver mets like nobody's business!

Storming the gates for ya!
