Re: Recurrence

Ginny,

I am sorry you are having to do chemo again, but admire your gutsy attitude! There were a number of this group who have had Gemzar, so hopefully they will chime in soon. Glad you had a good experience with your present boss. Kindness and compassion can sure warm the heart, can't it? Please let us know how your first infusion goes when you feel up to it. I will be thinking of you tomorrow!
