Andi,
Thanks for being so concerned. I'm doing ok. I'm on powerful antibiotics and saw my pulmonary doctor on Monday. He said my lungs sound better and is extending the time I'll be taking the antibiotics. I doubt that I will get chemo tomorrow other than Herceptin that is. Tipsy is a joy! She has a new sweater that my daughter made her and she's doing fine. Everyone in the family loves her. I'll take some pics and post them. I will indeed give her a great big hug from you.
