It is really, considering the tumour was removed during surgery and it was mighty tiny, so this treatment is an offensive and defensive action to take care of the cancer!

So go to the Crank It Up page and find a tune you like and play it loud!

Thanks RJ

Blue,
Looks like things are moving along.
She will probably be going to an Infusion Center for treatment and most chemo treatments take about an hour + or -
They should be following up doing Lab work before each treatment.
I would ask if the Labs include a her Colon Cancer Marker. so you can follow the Results of the Chemo as you go along.
Tell them you want a Copy of the Results each time they do labs and look for the correct marker number.
If they do not include the Marker ask WHY ???
I would also keep an Eye on her Glucose numbers and try not to eat too many Sweets and Refined Carbs.
Stay Hydrated. Remember you are taking a Toxic Brew.
Add 1 teaspoon of Sea Salt to a gallon of water for best results.
Best wishes for her Success.

Thanks, like her last chemotherapy, they will give her the information as you say, markers.
Sweetie went through this in October 2015, December 2015 , January through April 2016 prior to her Stem Cell transplant, same people, same excellent level of care.

I wish her the best and you too for taking care. I saw my Mom go through Ovarian Cancer diagnosed 2 weeks after my Dad retired. not much they could do as it had spread all over inside.
