Vacation officially over...

I just hung up with the oncologist's office. Time to get the boys back to work. I start back up on my nightly pills tonight. But they are dose-reducing me again. I am down to taking 4 pills (a mere 1000 mg).

Will you say a little prayer that my system tolerates this dosage okay and that my GI track stays healthy? There will be no more dose reductions. If my body keeps acting up then I will not be allowed to continue in the clinical trial. But I think I will be okay now. I am sure this is the magic dosage for me and I can continue with it...for another 4 months...or 120 days...or...ey ya ya. ;-)

Praying that this is indeed the magic dosage and that your body tolerates it well. Hoping that you are feeling better and continue to do so under the new plan!

I am thinking very good thoughts for you! These pills are doing their magic. You can do this...

I loved your posts about your dogs. We just got a dog (my first as an adult) the day after Thanksgiving from a rescue foundation. I am a true dog lover now. I'd love to catch up sometime on your pooping in the house ordeals. Just when I think Lucy is trained - we have another "incident".

All my best to you and your beautiful family- two and four legged! :)
