My Dear Friends,

Just a quick note, as it's 8am and I need to leave for treatment soon. This week it's just Herceptin so I shouldn't feel sick. Been having trouble kicking the nausea. Have to have food in my stomach most of the time to feel better.

Today's milestone was washing my right foot without that long sponge on a stick. I have also been able to pick things off the floor if I bend carefully at the knee.

Showing some signs of hair loss. I have been very nice to my hair lately, shampooing gently every other day with cool water. I let it air dry or use a cool hairdryer, which takes FOREVER. Of course it could be all for naught and I may be completely bald soon but so far so good.

Took a passport picture yesterday, in case I need to seek treatment abroad eventually.

Gotta go. Dad's here to take me to treatment.

Love,
Jeanette

    Hi Netters!

    That is awesome you can bend further now! I did notice at Christmas you were moving around very well - you bounce back FAST! :)

    To address the flower issue; I would write them a note saying "Thank you for the stinky flowers". Just kidding - I would call them (talk to your best bud there), say thank you and joke about how "fragrant" they were. If the buddy doesn't recognize and address the sarcasm, I would leave it be. :)

    Love you Sis!!!
    -Linz
