Chemo again!

Today I went to see my oncologist Dr. Harris. I will see her every three weeks. I am starting the Chemo "Xeloda" tomorrow, but a lesser dose, 75%. This means, I'll be taking three pills in the morning and three at dinner time (instead of four)

Dr. Harris was not surprised that I had side effects, it might take a few cycles to determine how much my body can tolerate. She was surprised though with the fact that I got over it so fast. A cycle means, two weeks chemo, one week rest. She wants me to be on 10 cycles altogether.

I feel good, very good actually. Lots to be thankful for!

Thank you Lord and thank you family and friends for your love and prayers!
