Dear Friends:
As the end of the year and the century approaches and my computer is
about to crash from so much accumulated research and email, I decided to save
and/or delete all the thousands of emails on my two servers, business and
personal. As I started going through all the posts from the first time I
sent a query to Mol back in June, I realized how wonderful and encouraging
you all have been--Martha, Marty, Cori, and of course, Lillian, to name a
few. I read and saved each message with great care.
I am a little blue tonight. My dear husband has been doing so well and we
are
on the verge of our first goal--celebrating the New Year. But his new chemo
regime of gemzar has hit him much harder than the taxol/carbo. He had his
third treatment after a four week break this Monday and came down with a
fever, diarrhea, loss of appetite and incredible fatigue. He's been sleeping
almost constantly for two days. I really don't know where this is all going.
And I'm very nervous about a Stage I trial. I know we need something
besides chemo, but which trial to pick is a great dilemma.
In the meantime, I want to thank each and every one of you for all your
opinions, advice and encouragement. I hope tomorrow brings a better day and
we can regain our positive outlook. All the best to one and all. Bess
