Subject: RE: Nibbs XLISpokes - 2009-07-29 9:35 AM Mel - thanks. Yesterday, she got mapped in preparation to start zapping on Monday. She's also starting chemo - 1 4 hour session 1x a week for the next four months. I suspect they're going to do the same thing with the radiation for a while too.
Really, this is the beginning of the end with Stage IV - she's 73, will be 74 in October - however, people at her age live for years with Stage IV cancers, even in the lung. So really, its not an issue of beginning or end, its how long the middle will be. Make the most out of it, Spokesy. I never had that chance. |
