1 To Go!

Last Tuesday saw Cathy receive chemo #7. While the side effects of Taxol are intense, it seems they may be shorter lived than Adriamycin/Cytoxan. Saturday afternoon found us in the Ogden 6 theater enjoying "Australia". Due to the rather regular "irregularity" that has happened with each chemo, she was unable to attend church today. Eyelashes are beginning to fall out and Cathy's fingernails appear to be dying. But Cathy's energy seems to be getting stronger earlier in the Taxol cycles.

Nine days from now Cathy will brace herself for her 8th and final chemo and we are anticipating this phase to be completed.

We found out last week that, due to her impending radiation therapy, Cathy's final surgery will be postponed until sometime in the fall. Just maybe we'll be able to enjoy a respite this summer!

Thanks for following Cathy's Journey.

Cathy, Cathy, my dear. My heart and prayers are lifting you to the Lord. I pray this will be over soon for you...you much more than I.
Love,
