February 6th update


Nancy started treatments yesterday afternoon.  We were able to get the echo-cardiogram at 11:30 on the South Hill and got the call to come in at 3:30 for her initial dose.  This medicine is to be taken once per week (no weeks off).  Nancy will lose her hair over the next 4 weeks or so.  We will have more of a review with the Doctor's next week.  Yesterday the key was to get started.

The scan to show progress in treating the liver will around 6-9 weeks away.  We know there will be some other baseline checks (like another echo, etc) coming up.  Nancy has been very tired.

She enjoyed homemade soup from Patsy last night.  Thanks to all for your support.
