Everything went just fine with chemo today. Dr. B is not in on Friday so the nurse said the note on my chart said that the MUGA results were reviewed and I should receive Herceptin. I will just assume that means everything is fine with my heart after the AC chemo. We were in treatment from 9 - 2 but I napped thru most of it. Bret did some office work and had to be on "snore" patrol again....I tell him to wake me up if I start snoring too loud. After taking all the steroids last night I only had a couple hours of sleep so once they get all the meds in me I am ready to sleep. I just woke up from another nap now and I feel fine. I got the Lupron shot and a new script to help with the bone pain so I am hoping that things won't be too rough this weekend...the good thing is that it should only last a few days and then I will feel good again.
Bret made it home from Orlando and he was very tired but he had a great trip. On his last night there Grainger had the Magic Kingdom open for just Grainger and their guests so Bret was invited as a vendor. They gave them a bus tour first so they were able to see a lot of behind the scenes places that most of us will never see. Once inside the park they were able to eat at several restaurants, there were several DJ's set up and open bars set up in many areas. They had all the rides open just for them and the characters were even out visiting with all the employees from Grainger and their guests...he said it was an unbelievable experience. I am glad he had a nice time and a few days away. My friend Heather took Jillian and I to see HS Musical on Ice last night with her daughter Amanda. The girls loved the show!! I really appreciate her getting the tickets for us. Cathy Fears delivered a yummy dinner for all of us tonight - we really appreciate the meals and the overwhelming generosity of our friends and neighbors. Bret and the kids will go over to watch the Packers game tomorrow with our big Packer Fan neighbors (The Hulefelds). Penny is from the frozen north so she loves to watch the games. It will be a fun afternoon for all of them! I hope everyone has a good weekend...I will send out a new update once I get thru whatever this treatment has to offer this time around!!

I personally am hoping that this treatment brings you only some good nap time! IT's so nice to hear Bret had a good time on his trip! You'll be making those trips again before you know it. Dig your heals in this weekend and bust through it and keep telling yourself, only 2 more!!!! I'll check in with you later.
Love, Kay
Hi Jan!!
Glad to hear you got out and had a good time at HS Musical on Ice. I'm sure it was a great show. I took Kylie, a few years back, to Disney on Ice...it was fabulous. There is nothing better than seeing the joy on the girls faces when they experience that.
I'm so glad to hear that your treatment went well. I can't believe that you only have two more!! This will all be over before you know it.
I hope you have a nice weekend and get plenty of sleep & rest.
We got to travel to KY today for Kylie's basketball game, about an hour drive, but it was nice to come home with a victory behind us!! They have some big girls over there, not sure what they are feeding them!! LOL But our "little" fiesty girls fought hard and came out on top!!
Stay strong and know how much you all are loved. Sending lots of hugs and prayers your way!!
Take care,
Sheryl
You are almost done! WHOO-HOO!! It will be over before you know it. I hope the bone pain has subsided and that your skin will feel better soon.
Take care!
Libby
