2 July Update

Day before a big day for us. Sarah gets her third round of chemo tomorrow, we think. But, the tumor in her right breast doesn't seem to be getting much smaller despite the two previous chemos, so we'll be deciding tomorrow with our oncologist on whether to continue chemo or do the mastectomy right away & get Sarah on the hormone and antibody drugs that should hopefully dramatically slow the growth of Sarah's cancer cells. If Sarah does get chemo, she might have less nausea this time due to moving to the latest anti-nausea drug called Emend. So, tomorrow we'll see how the rest of this week will unfold - chemo yuck-week or surgery.
