Newest Update

Journal entry by Darryl Drevna

Hi everyone -- Just a quick update.  Heather is doing well after last week's round of AC chemo -- the so-called Red Devil  😈  because of the way it looks in the IV bag (and the side effects). We're trying to keep a sense of humor about this -- to me it looks like really bad jungle juice.   But, it won't keep her down.  She's tired but otherwise doing well.  

In even better news, we met with her oncologist the morning.  And the tumor is shrinking, which means the medication is working as planned.  She has two more doses of this before she switches to a different chemotherapy drug.  But so far so good!

Thanks, everyone!

Darryl
