I certainly understand your fatigue, am just regaining some of my strength after my first line therapy. Hoping your new regimen is successful and well tolerated.
Best wishes for a healthy 2009!

Deandra, It is good to hear from you. I think of you often and send good thoughts your way. Last Christmas I was in the hospital, and dealing with just finding out that I had OvCa. This Christmas I was pretty excited to be healthy enough to help with clean up after Christmas dinner:) I am doing well, staying level at 8. I hope that the new regimine is very toleralble and that you can live your life with some normalcy. I will be waiting to hear some good news. Love, Kerry
Hi Deandra. I am glad to hear that you are doing better. Stay in touch.

I'm pleased you don't have to go through further surgery! But do hope your new chemo combo works wonders for you!!
I'll be thinking of you and sending positive thoughts on the 7th, it's the same day I go for mine.
Best of luck and good wishes coming your way....Janet
I will keep you in my prayers that the new chemo regimen will kick some butt! Praying for a happy, healthier 2009!! Hugs, Colleen
Hey there, Ladies......I hope 2009 will be filled with nothing but good health and good news and lots of love and laughter and family for each of us! Good luck with your next chemo......I will be thinking of you both.
Peace.

Hey Sweetie,
I guess no surgery is a good thing. I wish you amazing luck on the new combo. I have done both, but not together (although now I am on the Doxil with the Carbo) so you know where to find me if you have any questions. I have found that the flu thing with the carbo has been just like it was the first time around.
I hate it that we have this awful fatigue at a time when we need to be at our best to fight this never ending nitemare. I think that is what is going on with a lot of the older members. We are all just overwhelmed with tired and to many years of this. Maybe we need a cyber party to get everyone back together.
My next chemo is the 6th and it will be the 4th one of this combo and he said that is how long it takes to know if it is working. My CA only came up by 50pts last month as opposed to the 100 or so it has been so he said it might be reaching it's peak.
You are loved so much by so many people Deandra and we are all here for you. Cory sends a hug. Say hi to your mom for me.
Love,
Jan
So very glad to hear from you. I've been wondering how you are doing. May God bless you with a successful round of chemo. I pray for you and the ladies on this forum asking for God's healing hands to touch us all. Best of everything in '09. Judy
Thanks for checking in.... Wishing you a good New Year and a good start to chemo!
Love, Meg
We all love you, Deandra. We're sending you all of our prayers that this combo will kill the nasty critters. Once and for all!
Oh. And, if you lose your hair, I know this *wonderful* hairdresser in Boulder who can give you beautiful cuts and shapings as it grows back in. Oh wait. She's YOU!
Love you and all that. Lemme know how I can help.

Hi all I am still here in AZ , weather is better here than in Iowa I hear. Hope this finds all of you feeling much better now, and we have a new year in front of us to look at now. Chris and I will be flying home next Monday. The 5 grand daughters have been a real joy to be around. going to Sedona tonight to see the festival of lights, and then out to eat at Rawhide.
Deandra,
It is so very good to hear from you! And yes, I think that we all know what you mean when you speak of fatigue. It just never seems to go away does it?
I hope that you were able to enjoy the holidays.
I have been away recently, just dealing with some new emotions that I thought were long past. But I still think of you and everyone else everyday. Hopefully I can get through this low spot and be back to normal soon.
My next chemo is on the 5th. Sounds llike a lot of us have our week ahead already planned out. I wish you the very best.
Love Chris
