Carolin's New Hobby

The lovely summer of 2004 came to an abrupt end when Carolin was diagnosed with cancer. What follows are the random thoughts and experiences of the Camerons as Carolin fights back.

Herceptin/Chemo Day #2

This afternoon was treatment #2. It was long - 4 1/2 hours but the port meant no digging around for a vein. I used some numbing cream that made the needle poke less painful than last time. They gave me the anti-nausea, steroids, 3 chemo "pushes", Herceptin and then saline. After that I had to go have a chest x-ray to make sure my port hasn't moved. (AFTER two chemo rounds ???) I made it home around dinner time. Feeling fine so far - just tired.

Hopefully this round will be uneventful.

Love Carolin

    Still following your journey and thinking of you often. You really are one of the most amazing and positive women I have ever met. Remember we are right across the street if you ever need anything. (I'm not good at thinking about what people might need so please speak up.)

    Hugs, Cheryl Kirkpatrick
