Thank you all for the love and support. Sheila I don't think he will put me on Abraxene or Taxol right now because I progressed on and Taxotere. He is going to email the doctor I had at Dana Farber to get more ideas so maybe Avastin will be in there some where. I pray that Gemzar does something for me if not he said he will put me in the hospital to heavily pre medicate me and give me the Carboplatin. As for the new drug IXEMPRA he is going to wait to give this to me since I just failed the taxotere, I am so confused and of course I was alone this morning when I went to see him so all I remember is bits and piece's in between all the tears. So thanks again for all of the love it helps me to be stronger and never to give up this fight. And if anyone can give me some info about there adventure with Gemzar I would deeply appreiciate it. I love you all so much and thanks again for all the support.
