Slowly Improving After Round #3

Mary Jo was feeling a little less tired today but the nausea was relentless. She rested most of the day and later in the afternoon we went for a walk around the neighborhood and MJ tried to enjoy a glass of wine on the porch before turning in at about 7pm. She has an 8:30am appointment tomorrow morning at the oncologists office for her weekly Herceptin treatment. Herceptin (trastuzumab) is a monoclonal antibody that interferes with the HER2/neu receptor. It is a type of targeted cancer therapy that MJ's oncologist, Dr. Gall refers to as a smart bomb.
