Hi Courtney

Wow sounds like you had a great trip down to NZ. You picked the right time of year. The weather has got cold and wet, winter is on its way. Did you manage to get up to the north island?

I've only just been reading these post on Intracthecal Herceptin how is it going?

I'm still recovering from WBR and VMAT all went well and other than losing may hair again I feel good just waiting for my next scan result in four weeks to see how successful it was. For my my next option is to travel overseas for gamma.

I'm going to onc 18 May and going to see if this intrathecal herceptin is an option for me to.

Thank you for being so brave you really are leading the way for others and certainly give confidence for me to try new and improved technology. Hope you feel good, take care.

Regards
Jacqui
