After much prayer and investigation on the treatment options I was given, we finally made a decision.  I will be undergoing AC/TH which is an aggressive but very successful plan.  I compared the dose dense treatment (traditional administration) and the clinical trial.  It made the most sense to try the trial.  I will be carefully monitored and I can opt out at any time.  I am praying (and you can help out here) for the mildest side effects possible, but I'm trying to prepare for whatever.  I really do not like the whatever part!!!!!!!

Went wig (Cranium prosthesis??) shopping on Tuesday to get an idea of what it will be like.  Did you know that when you shoe shop you wear footies and when you wig shop they put a large footie on your head??  Oh, wait, I think it's called a skull cap.  We had a few laughs (long, straight and red does not work!!) and I have to keep looking!

I will be having a port put in sometime next week.  It's an outpatient procedure.  They say it takes about 4 hours and I get a twightlight drug.  The chemo will start on Thursday.  I'm not sure of the time I will be there, but the first time is always longer so they can monitor how you do.  

I am enjoying these days of feeling good.  I am so grateful for all the wonderful ways that people have reached out to help us at this uncertain time.  I just can't believe the net of support that I feel surrounds me.

Moocho Gracious!
