Re: how much more?

Thanks to all of you.... I was having a bit of pity party for the last few days and feeling so terrible didn't help the situation at all. I feel better today and look forward to tomorrow when I'll be a day stronger and closer to kicking this cancer in the butt...lol Spring is here now ... or at least the snow has all melted and a few days of sunshine will be much welcomed. Thanks to all for your words, I don't often allow myself to slip into such a funk... but it's been rough and I've of course been too hard on myself as usual..lol

Thanks again and everyone keep up with all your posts although I don't post often I read daily.....

Re: how much more?

Hi Patricia,

Thanks for letting us know how you are doing. Please know that you have lot of options left. Is there any TDM1 trial in your area? That is very easy on your body and seems to be very effective.

Julie

Wink Re: how much more?

Take good care of yourself and enjoy the tea. The tea sounds good to me. A good cup of tea, a good book or t.v. show and a good view. Nice
