Thank you, Doxil.

After Tuesday's infusion, I layed low for a few days. But, to be completely honest it was a painless chemo and I was up and at 'em again this weekend, celebrating the 4th -- just like everyone else =)

I don't want to jinx this treatment -- however, I think you can tell how I tolerated this chemo only a few days after my infusion on Tuesday. So, here I am with my beautiful friends Amy and Mandy -- we got a beautiful beach day and fireworks in at Mandy's Beach house in Rhode Island. It was a gorgeous weekend.




Here's to normalcy, despite treatment!
Thank you for the calls, emails, and words of support and concern.
And thank you Doxil, for being so kind.
Next treatment: July 21st.

Sending Love,
B

Woohoo! I'm glad it went well for you and you got to enjoy the weekend, even if I am jealous :o) I miss the beach and Block Island (I used to nanny for a family that had a house there). Have a wonderful week!

That's great news! Hopefully it keeps working on the Hodgkins and keeps being kind to you! The beach looks amazing! Enjoy your time off! Rhona XX
