Cycle 4: Going Home!
Hi All, I should be breaking out of this joint in about an hour and heading home! Cycle 4 seems to be going as well as could be expected. A few days at home will finish the “purge”. I’ll get another scan in a couple of weeks and expect it will be CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! […]
More About Chemo…Protect Yourself!
