Chemo Consultation Appointment

Well, not the best news yet, but I guess not the worst! Since the tumor was large and the fastest growing kind they have decided to give me the most aggressive type of chemo drugs. But that said they will give them to me every other week for 16 weeks so not the 6 months we had expected. Then we wait one month and start six weeks of radiation. The weird thing about it all was the doctor's phrase "You will loose your hair" keeps going over and over in my head! This hadn't even bothered me until now. Maybe I just need something to focus on to get me through the next couple of weeks! I go for a heart scan, then have a port surgically inserted and then we start.

We'll keep you posted. By the way, we got some pictures of Ken in his do-rag today. He looks pretty good! Much better than if I let him shave his head in sympathy!
