It is known to have good response to chemotherapy and has good long-term disease free survival rates after three courses of chemo. So we will be at this for a while longer...BUT.....it has a good chance of resulting in a cure.

omg, I am going to go throw up now.

thank God thank God thank God.

OOOOOH!!!! WOOOOOOOOOTTT!!

Awesome news!!!! And kudos to Joe for not letting you break up with him. He is there for you. But, you need to also try to take care of yourself for him. Have a good meal, hot bath and sleep, medically induced if necessary. You amaze me with your strength and wisdom. Hang in there, Nani!

Friday update

I'm on my way to pick Emily up from the airport...should be a really fun weekend

Sour apple martinis are chillin' in the freezer as we speak.

Joseph's blood counts were good this morning...best news of all though is that there was not one cancer cell in this morning's sample.

Thank you so much for your prayers. We are far far far from being out of the woods, but at least we all have something positive to hold on to as the next few weeks go by.

Love you all.

LindaJ · 06-10-2005, 11:07 AM
