All done, just the Herceptin

Good for you Josie.Yes,we have to make an effort.I got some Miller's bargains too.I like the fact that I'm a size 12 in there! Sounds like your hair is coming through "tabby cat"colour like mine did.At that point I changed over to head bands that I made-very swish-a colour for every occasion.

i havent been on here for a while, but when i do pop in, i just love the way everyone supports each other, if you are like me and live in a rural area with no support groups, where would we be without this wonderful bunch of ladies. every one an inspiration, and although we all travel a different journey through BC, we all have so much emotions, and thoughts that are the same. keep up the good work girls, whether you have just started the journey, or have finished the treatment, lets make sure we are here for anyone who comes into our club.

I plan to do the same thing Josie.That way you can file it all away and get on with living.One of the reasons I am moving,downsizing is to set my husband up in house that will be easy to maintain on his own incase I snuff it.How morbid is that!!Anyway,like you Josie,I plan to be around a long time and enjoy my new house.But cancer forces us to think about all this doesn't it.

well done on getting thru all that radiation rubbish, and moving on to the next phase of herceptin for 12 months. I too have done the herceptin 3 weekly trip (but for longer than 12 months-we just keep treating) I am now on a pill form of herceptin (giving that a go) so not doing the regular hospital trip, but we miss 'our girls' so much that we often grab a coffee and call in to the unit just to say hi.

Don't feel too thingy about the funeral/will stuff.  I have started making some plans for everyone celebrating my 'last day'..it gives me a feeling of control and i know that it will be just how i want it to be.

Enjoy being home

Hi Joy, all the best with the remainder of your treatment.  I was on the HERA trial in 2003 and was lucky enough to get the arm with Herceptin every 3 weeks for 1 year.  Enjoy being home, you can't beat that can you.
