Well, I've made it through round two treatment without incident. Based on several different things that we're going to do over the next five days, hopefully the side effects will be uneventful as well.
The BEST news of the day..........Dr. Jordan examined me and estimates that the tumor is approximately HALF the size that it was originally. So, thanks to the new drug, Herceptin, it is rapidly reducing. If you didn't see Lifetime Network's film, "Living Proof".......watch for it as it is most informative relative to the production and creation of Herceptin. My life would be very different right now if not for this drug.
On a side note, I had a friend who used to always say, "How does he know when you need it?" I wondered that very thing this morning during my early morning apprehension about today's big treatment. I sat down to check email and my nephew, Dustin had sent me this informal video of him singing "Where No One Stands Alone".....he and friends had just recorded it last night.........and I thought, "Man, how DOES the Good Lord know exactly WHAT you need and WHEN you need it? Thanks Dut and Praise God!
I hope this clip will open so you can hear this.

Oooh, we haven't heard about that Lifetime show. We'll have to check it out. I'm so glad your cancer is her2-neu positive! We love herceptin. :-)
