Breast Cancer Update from Chrissy 1-18-10

I had treatment 6 of chemo last week. It has been 12 weeks of chemo thus far. The last two treatments were a new type for me, called Taxol. The Oncologist told me I would not need nausea medicine this round. I was elated to get past the nausea and thought nothing could be worse. The first Taxol treatment, however, still made me nauseous, but we found out that was my body’s reaction to the steroid Decadron (Dexamethosone). This last round, they cut the steroid dose in half, and it didn’t cause th… Continue

Chrissy's Breast Cancer Update

I included in last issues editor letter that I would keep readers posted of my condition, so here is a synopsis.

Four surgeries and an infection... Sounds like a movie title, but that has been my life the last few months. I was a stimulus package to the medical industry. Although it was at times traumatic, I got through the surgeries and staff infection, taking it day-by-day, and have moved onto chemotherapy with Almaden's own oncologist, Dr. Cohen.

Plastic Safety

I am going to start this blog out, with a cute and memorable rhyme that my back-country dwelling Aquatic Biologist sister, Dawne Becker, working for Fish & Game with the State of California, insists all of us suburbians should know. After reading the article below, which she also suggested, I understood why! ;-) Please at least read the rhyme and share with your kids. If you have time, read the entire article, for it is worth it.

Thanks,
Chrissy

Gretchen Boise from AZ wrote the first rhyme… Continue

Sorry I couldn't stay. I just ran out of energy. It was a nice event but most of the people I know didn't show. The audiologist I work with is a member and we had a nice chat. I look forward to the next event.
Don
