Ok, maybe not…

Readers! They kicked me out! Yep, after taking my labs turns out I am not fit for chemo. My platelets are at a 75 and they need to be at least 100 before I can have chemo. I will go in next Monday to Dr. D’s office for labs to check everything (maybe should have done that this week) out and then check into the hospital on Tuesday.

Dr. D stopped by before I left and we had a long talk. She is so cool like that. She sits right down and talks to you. We discussed the possibility of the chemo getting rid of the tumors completely. She doesn’t think this will happen. Her goal is to get them as small as possible and then stabilize them. She rattled off all kinds of drugs and treatments she is thinking of possibly using. It will all depend on what is available when I am done with chemo. She is very positive. She told me not to go “there” in my thinking. I have no problem living with cancer and some tumors as long as I am living!

Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers Readers! Keep them coming.

  1. There is something wrong when NOT getting chemo is a disappointment. There is something very right about a doc who is that positive… Hang in there, Shay…
