Wore scarves mostly and a few hats when cold. The FAC was 5-FU, Adriamycin  and Cytoxin and the shot everyone dreads Nevlasta SEVERE BACK PAIN!!! on day 2 and the 10th hours after shot. would'nt wish it on an enemy if I had one.Cry Just horrible!! Well my chemo ended the end of April I had the mammo-site RAD 1st. I forget how many right now, But I believe I went everyday. Need to reread my journal!

"Cancer is tough stuff, but love is stronger."

"I am not a survivor - I am an overcomer"

"I could grieve or I could celebrate. The choice was mine."

It's not always easy but "A positive attitude will give you the courage to go on when things get rough. Most important, remember that you are not alone!"
