Lots of love to you

Hi Tracy!

I know that this disease seems like it should be enough sorrow for a lifetime! I am so sorry that you have had such a terrible blow to add to the difficulty you already have. I am praying that God will wrap you in a blanket of his love. If there is anything we can do, just send a note.

Love to you, Kathy

Then I remember that these are the times that God carries us...rest in the arms of our prayers, know that you are loved...we know that you are a loving women.

Tracy,

Once the shock has passed and you feel like you can once again breathe, we'd love to hear about your husband. His likes, dislikes, etc. Share when you can.

Love and light,

Lisa

Smile Herceptin allergy

Dear Carina,

I'm so sorry you have had problems with Herceptin. I have only had four treatments but so far no big problems. Other than very fatigued from the large dose of Benadryl which I sleep off when I get home. I too had ductual carcinoma diagnosed in April 2006, 2nd breast cancer, first was 10 yrs ago, 1995 in other breast. At that time I had lympectomy followed by 36 radiation treatments. This time I had partial mastectomy, one lymph gland was positive, others negative. Saw 3 oncologists before making a decision, love who I'm using and so far we'll continue with Herceptin, Aridia and Femora. If things change with blood then I'm sure it will be other treatment. Saw surgeon yesterday, he thinks I need to do radiaiton, just finished 18 radiation treatments on spine for malignant tumor discovered in a bone scan, still trying to recouperate from that.

Please keep me informed of your progress.

Dear Tracy,
I am so sorry. I too lost my husband suddenly when he was just 39 and I know how you are feeling right now. Now the peace of God's presence and the assurrance of His love surround you and your family. You will survive this as difficult as it seems now. Rest in His love for you. Do not expect anything of yourself right now. Allow friends and family to care for you.

God Bless you,
You are in my prayers,

May memories bring you gladness and time ease your sadness and the Lord carry you through it all.
