The worse of this round is over

After several days with a low grade fever and severe muscle and bone pain, I can now say that I am on the mend and feeling better. I did not leave the couch for the last three days but woke up this morning with some mild discomfort and weakness. Trust me, that is an improvement. On Wednesday I will go in for a on hour Herceptin treatment. I should have no side effects from this drug (we hope). I will be receiving Herceptin intravenously for a year, but it is not considered chemotherapy. Once I start radiation they will reduce my Herceptin treatments to once every three weeks.

Here is a recent photo of me taken when we went to West Virginia while my mother was here. As you can see I have no hair but still have eyebrows and eyelashes.
