Hi Steph,
Will be saying a vry special prayer for you on Tues. Morning. If it helps you to know that I had all my
herceptin via my arm for the entire year and all went
very well without problems. Have your nurse prepare
your arm by giving you a warm prep towel (my nurse
woul heat up a moist towel wrapped in saran wrap)
in the microwave. This would help the veins.

All prayers and good wishes are with you dear sister!
Hugs,
jean
