yes, Pat, Neulasta better news on this report, on several fronts her white cells built up enough to do chemo yesterday the new nausea meds worked, she did not get sick she is going in today for a med for white cell build up - I thought she said a shot the tumor feels softer to the doc - so something is already happening to it we're thinking that as sensitive as she is to meds, the big plus is the chemo drugs are working better than normally expected, just as you thought too - hence the low white blood cell count we also talked about expecting the unexpected - that it will prolly be par for the course, twists here and there - things not seen that crop up - and that, that is what we should expect - she seems more open to that line of thought now I'm going over there next week and bringing all her favorite take out chinky dishes - all the girls are coming - I'll give her the CD then as also expected, her hair has fallen out this week - she had gotten a 1 inch buzz so it wouldn't seem so traumatic when it happened but it still was her hair is straight as an arrow and she has always admired my curls - I told maybe it will come back in curly and we can call her Shirley [as in Temple] after we spoke, I cried for everything she is going through and the loss of her lovely hair thank you for sharing so much - for me, it helps having your voice of experience - it eases the fears Sherry
