Don Wood Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Per request, I submit the update on my love, Lucie. She had her third cycle of avastin/taxol/carboplatin today, and it went smoothly. Took about six hours. We had Krystal hamburgers for lunch! Our last visit with the oncologist last week was good. He thought she looked terrific and said the chemo must be working! Actually, I agree -- she has cut way back on the breakthrough pain meds and is looking good. He also said that they would probably do a PET scan a few weeks after this cycle, to see how things are really going. We are very hopeful. We are planning to go to Dallas for the bash on July 1st and hope to see a lot of you there. I had my annual heart checkup -- echogram of heart, carotids, leg arteries and nuclear stress test and all is well at this time. We love you guys and gals.
