How'd the chemo with carboplatin go?  

Much, much better, thank you. Not a meal missed. She's had a very good few days. We think her cousin Aiden :angelwingsmust be sending her a little extra oomph from the bridge.

What a beautiful girl! Keep getting better, Sweep. 

I have no doubt that Aiden is looking out for you and sending those good vibes.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Chemo #5 in progress; we'll pick her up in an hourish. Onco just called and is very happy with how she's doing; she's gained 2 lbs since her last visit (a good thing!). He does want to do one more carboplatin treatment after this, so we'll be split 3 and 3 between doxo and carbo. Bummer this won't be her last, but at least the carbo is much much easier on her. She'll get chest rads next time too, but he's not hearing or seeing anything concerning breathing-wise.

And really good news: he no longer thinks the lump on her wrist is histiocytic sarcoma because it's not acting aggressively at all. It's probably another type of unrelated (non-metastatic) soft tissue sarcoma. It's not bothering her and is growing so slowly that the osteo will metastasize first and so that's what we're focusing on.

Phew. Birthday #12 on October 15. We'll be there with bells on.
