May'07~ Started Tykerb/Xeloda, no WBR for now
June'07~ MRI - stable brain mets, no new mets, 9mm spots less enhanced, CA15.3 down 45.5 to 9.3 in 10 wks, Ty/Xel working magic!
Aug'07~ MRI - brain mets shrunk half, NO NEW BRAIN METS!!, TMs stable @ 9.2
Oct'07~ PET/CT & MRI show NED
Apr'08~ scans still show NED in the head, small bone spot on right iliac crest (rear pelvic bone)
Sept'08~ MRI shows activity in brain mets, completed 5 fractions/5 consecutive days of IMRT to zap the pesky buggers
Oct'08~ dropped Xeloda, switched to tri-weekly Herceptin in combo with Tykerb, extend to tri-monthly Zometa infusion

Good idea. We can do that. Okay everybody. Put down the cookies, chips and drinks. Take a deep breath in, hold for a few seconds and breathe out.
We have done that a thousand times for medical professionals. Now we have a new reason for doing it.

Hi -
Snowed here last night and more predicted later. That campfire really feels good! Here are some pine cones from our stand of douglas firs (you know - here in the misty woods).
Not to be a spoil sport, but I have my mug of detox tea and some Newman's Own Ginger Cookies. The bedtime snacks ya know!

The Campfire
I have a thermos of soothing mint tea. Anybody want a cup? Those ginger o's sound good. Humm.
Time to crawl in my sleeping bag for a nice warm nap
near the campfire.

Elaine is asleep - I can't drink tea this late because it will keep me awake, so I start nibbling some of the ginger-Os that are laying around the fire.
Well, that made me drowsy... time for bed, Good-night.
(Sweet dreams and I'll see you guys in the morning...)
