I'm not sure if I told you this or not, but Kecia started back on Herceptin this past Thursday. She was taking that during her original bout with cancer but has only been on Xolmetta and ??? (sorry, can't remember) this time. They have decided to add Herceptin back in along with these other two. So as it stands now, she takes one of the oral chemos every day, the other is every day for two weeks then off for one week, and the Herceptin she gets through IV every Thursday. She is disappointed about this on several levels. First, we are wondering why they feel like she needs yet another chemo. Second, she feels bad enough without adding any more poison to her exhausted body, and third, she has to spend all day on Thursdays getting it IV style.
Her brain scan is scheduled for Tuesday the 26th so please be in prayer about this. I can't even imagine how she will feel if she hears that there are more spots on her brain. Her body is so exhausted right now. She desperatly needs a break so her body can begin to heal from all of the surgeries and chemo. We are praying for clean brain scans and a good break from feeling sick.
