Chemo - Day 1

Today we got our schedule for Chemotherapy. 6 treatments, 1 every 3 weeks. This is shorter than we were expecting which is great. She is in Group 1. Her treatments will consist of Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide and Docetaxel. The total treatment today took about 4 1/2 hours. They said this time should decrease next time since they had to get the right dosages set up and some blood work done first. I will try to post each night updating her condition but as I am not sure what we are in for, I hope that I can...

Her 5 dates for treatments should be:
July 11th
August 1st
August 22nd
September 12th
October 3rd

    Jim,

    Cindy sent the email to me. letting my fingers click, blog, and help. You hang in there we are here, let us know if you need anything.
    I will pray for You, Jenn, and the kids. I can't do much about cancer so I leave it up to the One who can. It is in God's hands man!

    Love,

    George

    Jen,
    It was great to see you at Horizons on Saturday. Hadn't known you were having health problems but you sure looked good. Your eyes just twinkled when you talked about your scrapbooking. Keep it up(it will drive you crazy), or so my sister says. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
