Shelly,
I am sorry to hear this. Truly. But you will come through it. You don't have any choice, and you will find out how strong you are (even if you don't want to...)! I can speak from experience. Only a month ago I was in your shoes. I have been on Taxotere, carboplatin, and herceptin. I just had my 8th treatment today. I am doing much better and I have it in liver, pleura, lymph and bone. Once you get started on chemo you will feel you're "doing something" to beat this. There are lots of gals out there beating this disease. Don't deny yourself some tears--good stress reliever. Then you can pick yourself up and keep going. You have the right to be afraid and "shell shocked". But you also have the right to fight this with everything you got!
