third "Taxol" treatment

Hi all. So sorry it has been almost a week since I have blogged. Bad me.  I am doing pretty good. Still handling the Taxol treatments well.  I am not having many symptoms....I continue to be very blessed.


I have schedule an appointment with the geneticist for March 2nd.  It will be nice to get that appointment over.  I am hoping that I do not have the BRCA gene.  I hate the thought of my daughters having to deal with this someday.


I have also schedule an appointment with my radiation oncologist for mid March.  I will have radiation daily Monday through Friday for six weeks. The only good thing about radiation is that once I am doing radiation I am almost done with treatment :)


Dan and I have also decided that we are going to see another surgeon for another opinion on my surgery. It is just such a big surgery and I want to me sure that I have the best.  I am going to see Dr Byrd from the UW.  We actually already met him when I went to SCCA, but I want to talk to him more in depth about what surgery he would do for me.


I still have been feeling sad at times.  I still hate my bald head and can not wait to have my hair back.
