So for round 4 we dropped the C drugs completely. I only received herceptin and docetaxal. The side effects have been minimal. A few days of nausea and low energy. This one has been much more tolerable. 2 more rounds to go, not sure if the oncologist will desire to add back the C drugs or not, hoping not. Next bloodwork Oct 22, this is also the day I get my first echocardiogram to see if any damage has been done to my heart. Round 5 is October 23.

Round 4 we had a 40 cm dump of snow so I wore a Santa hat which delighted and appalled the medical staff. Since round 5 is close to Halloween I'm going to wear a witches hat and bright pink wig. I've found a pink pumpkin bucket and will fill it with candy treats for the medical staff and other cancer patients.

Round 6 I get to RING THE BELL! To signify the end of chemo, 3 days before my birthday.
