    Pure-  Always think of you while I am swimming and this last time I decided it was a good time for prayer so I said a prayer for you and Killian with each lap.  It was really very peaceful and I had such happy thoughts for you everything HAS to be good. 

    I am so anxious to hear all the details of a happy delivery (now that you are officially full-term).

    Pure,  God bless you and your family.  What a trying time for you. Will you be having the baby soon?

    I just saw your post and had to respond. I was just diagnosed when my son was almost 7 weeks old. I have the same fears that he will not know me and will have someone else being his mother.

    But I have faith things will be fine and I will be around for years to come. It is so overwhelming the hormones.

    My first treatment is done and now just waiting for my hair to fall out. I am thankful my little guy will not remember any of this crap I am going thru!

    Hugs and good luck...oh yes my son was born at 36 weeks but I see you will be induced next week.

    Hi Allison-yes next week he will be 37 weeks so we should be good to go.  Then I start 12 weeks of taxol then I am done.  I am sorry you feel so bad-I am not looking forward to that part.

    Are you doing rads as well?

    Hi Pure - yes I am doing the TCHx6 every 3 weeks, then herceptin every 3 weeks until December 2010. I will do surgery after chemo and then 5days a week for 6 weeks of rads.

    It will be a long year. We have a family vacation with about 20 of us going on a cruise in November, it is something to look forward to but I will be have a mx and I am kind of nervous about not having one breast. We'll see how the year goes.

    Keep us posted on your doctor visit. are you doing a c-section?
