I'm still living
I had a reaction to the taxotere but they got it under control. It made my back start hurting bad enough that they had to give me pain meds. They also gave me more benadryl and after a rest they restarted the taxotere. They had to stop one more time but we finally got it all in me. It took 5 hours to get it all in. It was only suppose to take 1 to 1/2 hours. I'm doing okay today execpt that I'm so tired.

Thank you so much for checking on me and for all of your support!

Hi Angela,

How scary for you though, but so thankful that you were finally able to get it in you. I hope you feel alright through the weekend and continue to pray for the Lord's protection to your body.

Love & God's Blessings,

Mary Jo
