Every day that gets further and...I am doing great! Every day that gets further and further from chemo I feel stronger, especially knowing I don't have to back and do it again next week! Praise God! <BR/><BR/>I go next week to get set up for radiation on Tuesday, and then on Friday to have my heart echo and Herceptin. There is small chance w/ Herceptin that it can cause damage to the heart muscle, so they do heart echos every so often to make sure mine is ok. They got a baseline before I started it and it showed an ejection fraction of 50%, which is low-normal (they like it to be between 50-75%). Tell me how you can run 30 mpw and have a "weak" heart?! My dr was puzzled, too, but says that that is just probably my normal, always has been always will be. But now we have to watch it more closely. My last echo, taken after 3 treatments, showed it had actually improved slightly! Hallelujah!! So my prayer now is for that echo next week to continue to show growth or no change so I can continue to receive my cure!<BR/><BR/>Hope you're having a good day!*Erica*https://www.blogger.com/profile/01188694770996705303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7840538697882135962.post-41940037288083892292009-02-24T15:29:00.000-07:002009-02-24T15:29:00.000-07:00We lost our 16 year old son, Joshua, November 15, ...We lost our 16 year old son, Joshua, November 15, 2003. Granted he is older than Isaac but the pain is the same. Hopes and dreams for our child are all but gone. <BR/> <BR/>No grieving is the alike. Joshua wasn't sick, we lost him in a car accident. <BR/><BR/>Pound the heavens with prayers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05613560832462002975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7840538697882135962.post-6731946876379710012009-02-24T13:38:00.000-07:002009-02-24T13:38:00.000-07:00Amen, Sister!
