Has anyone had this problem?

I am stage IV bc with mets to liver. Dx in 2002, her+ er neg. I have been on numerous chemo, but had to stop all them before tx was done due to low counts. My cancer has never reoccurred in my breast or mets to any place else. Now my disease in the liver is growing rapidly. I have been on herceptin since 2002, My liver is full of lesions. I am starting to get that wonderful yellowlook that comes with liver failure. I am on Xeloda, but no longer working.
We discussed Abraxine, but the Doc is afraid that my counts will fall and he won't be able to bring them back up. I can no longer make plts and my ct is always low. We tried megace and it put me in CHF. I also had a cerbral bleed in March (along with renal failure, chf, metabolic encepalopathy) They had my husband call my family in, My poor daughter had to come from her Honeymoon. The Doctors have told me it was a miracle when I woke up.
Anyway I was in coma for 4 days and had renal dialysis. I feel good at present time, but Onc has told me maybe 3 mos. I am not afraid of dying, I am afraid of not living, you know seeing my new Grandson grow up, or my Granddaughtere who lives with us, go to prom, learn to drive, ect,,,
Anyway, has anyone had this problem and if so what did you do? What treatment did you takeThanks for listening.
