Joy update

Hi, thank you for thinking of my sister. I know she really appreciates it, as do I. She was released from the hospital on Friday night. Her pain is being managed with a Phentenol patch and Dilaudid as needed. She is still having major constipation problems and she has taken everything possible. Everyday she has a little more strengh. She was able to get Herceptin on Tuesday. And Ixempra should be next week. She saw the NP on Tuesday and she felt her liver was smaller and the treament, although very toxic, is working.

On a lighter note, her boyfriend gave her a ring on Tuesday night so she is officially engaged!

I'm hoping the next round of Ixempra will go better! I will let you all know how it's going. Thanks again to everyone for your help and thoughts! Jennifer
