Jan has had a great week since her Herceptin infusion last Tuesday. She felt good enough to pay Starbucks several visits, attend a PEO social event, and join the family in celebrating son John’s birthday. The week was capped off by a visit from John and Jo Anne Caldwell today; they were en route to Nashville from John’s ??th high school reunion in Madison, Georgia.
We’re counting on good days continuing through Tuesday when she has her next infusion session. This will be the beginning of the fourth cycle (out of 6) so we are making progress! The first infusion of each cycle includes Taxotere and Carboplatin in addition to Herceptin. If she reacts to this infusion in the same way she reacted to the other three similar infusions, Thursday through Sunday (April 22 – 25) will be difficult days and recovery will begin Sunday / Monday. Here’s hoping we beat the plan.
Jan will stay with John and Sharon this coming Friday and Saturday nights, freeing me to help Atlanta Motorcycle Club run AHRMA dirt track races in Washington Georgia on Saturday. Thanks for helping out John & Sharon.
Our thoughts are with the Lancaster family. We learned that Aubrey’s father Hilton passed away yesterday. We’re confident that Aubrey greeted him with open arms. Godspeed Hilton.
