A Journey through Breast Cancer

Walk in Park with Louie, 1 day post chemo infusion #1

Just adding this video  I recorded and uploaded a couple of weeks ago.  I just had second infusion a couple of days ago and it's more bearable because I know what I like to eat and drink now.

Hope it helps anyone facing this terrifying diagnosis to feel less afraid.  It is really not as bad as I imagined it would be.  Many thanks to my oncologist, Peter Yi for giving me all kinds of meds to help with side effects.   Last infusion will be on December 9th.  Whoo Hoooo.... 

After that, I will begin using Herceptin, which is not supposed to be as disruptive as the heavy chemo I'm having now.  I like to think of Herceptin as a drone strike on any lingering cancer because it targets the  Her2 receptor of the tumors that were identified in pathology report.
