Re: Its all going wrong
I need to thank you all, I can never thank you enough. Just reading the signatures here lets me know what a courageous group has responded to me. I should find out today what new treatment I will be on and I will just get on with it and hope for the best.
Pam, I've just finished Gemzar, it worked really well for me. Maybe he will put me back on it
All of you have really been through so much, and you're all still here, Cath since 2000!! Karen, World Trade Centre and then cancer! Jackie, too numerous to mention and still going strong, Pam and Trish, no break either and you are always there to offer support. I'm so glad I posted, I was in such a dark place. But I'm ready to try again now. Thank you ALL!
