-she agreed to give me Zometa WITH chemo ( I really wanted this)
-she agreed to postpone scans since blood looks so good
-No more AUX drug (whoo hoo half way done)
-Start taxol week after baby

And to top it all off I swam 24 laps in the pool and notice HAIR coming in.....
These are small things to celebrate but these days I take anything:)))

The baby countdown begins! Good news and hair, too!

All wonderful news! How exciting to meet your sweet baby so soon!
My last AC is 1/11, too, so I'll be having a little celebration that day, too.
So we'll be close to the same countdown schedule with Taxol.

Wonderful news. I hope you feel some stress reduction with things being planned.

Thanks everyone!! Yesterday I felt the happiest I have felt since this began. I was actually surprised to feel so normal-I forgot what it felt like but I guess my talk with my doc was really weighing on my mind. It's amazing how treatment and the way we look drags us down. Getting my hair back means more then I thought. Also, to swim made me feel not held back. Being prego whil going through this is soooo hard b-c on top of everything I am so big and can't just gooo. I lookforward to sweating and running and doing all those things I can't do now b-c of baby. I am super scared of having this baby but have faith he will come out healthy.
Anyway thanks so much for the support!!!!

Just reading your good news......... whoo hoo!!! I'm so happy for you!!!

Great news!

Wonderful! But I have to disagree about these things being "small things". Where we are at right now they are huge and positive!
-
Pure-Exercising, Hair, and full-term. Sounds absolutely HUGE to me (excuse the pun at this point in pregnancy
) You go girl!
