Re: Colleen's Last Herceptin
 

Lee, your post reminded me of the terrible scare my husband and kids had after my bi-lateral mast. I had my surgery at the hospital where I work in surgery dept. There are a few perks to this, picking your surgery team, having everyone check things twice because they know you personally, etc. One of the downfalls was that my cousin Gary, an RN in Post Op who was my nurse arranged for my family to see me in post op after surgery. He sent another staff member to get my husband and kids out of the waiting room. They had no idea why they were summond and of course feared the worst, only to find out that I had come out of surgery just fine. I don't remember the vist at all, but Jeff still talks about how he thought he was losing me and how scared he was. Sometimes the caregivers have a heavier load to bear than the cancer SUVIVORS. You and Colleen have all my love and best wishes for nothing but happy times ahead. Peace Karen

Dear Lee

It seems that all this has gone by so quickly - now it is done and a new life will begin again, fresh and renewed in many, many ways.

Hopefully this does not mean that you will disappear completely. You have brought much to this group - games, jokes, laughter and fun. I pray we have all helped you as you have helped us.

Go forth and have fun
