3 Jan - Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to everyone! We celebrated Christmas here in Chicago with just us - intimate family setting. Sarah had quite a few doctor's appointments but we managed to make it out on a 5 day trip to New Orleans to visit Sarah's family over New Years Eve. Everyone had a great time on the trip and now we're back in the frosty tundra of Chicago and gearing up for Sarah's surgery on 12 Jan. We did go see the breast cancer specialist at University of Chicago last week before heading out, but the she did not have any significantly different new recommendations or insights into Sarah's cancer and treatment plans. Based on the discussion, we might talk to Sarah's current onc at trying Tykerb.
Well, first we need to get through this surgery and then move back in to systemic treatment mode. One step at a time. In the mean time Sarah's comfortable and has her appetite back, which we're thankful for.

Your London Navy friends have been thinking of you and praying for you all. Glad to see Sarah is feeling OK for the moment and has her appetite ... I'm sure that helps. Hang in there and best of luck next week. Jen
