What a Pain in the Bum and How to Kick its sorry Ass

Dear all,

The title is a tribute to two ladies who keep me going along this path....

My latest news is....

Thurs 12Jan - Blood Test and Oncologist appointment

Mon 16Jan - Chemo (Avastin and Irinotecan) starts again for the second round

Whilst I know what's coming after 16 sessions of chemo I am quite excited to get this started....I have read in the papers about how difficult it is to get Avastin due to the cost etc so I am glad I am with a hospital that believes in it!

Much Love

  6. Tony, you, Carole and Lisa (Loopy) also keep me going. I agree with Lisa that this is a team game and while I tend to lurk with very few comments, I always look forward to reading from all of you!
