I just wanted to post an update about my mom. She had her first chemo treatment yesterday, and will be on chemo for 6 months (12 treatments total). She went to the oncologist's yesterday for the chemo, then they attached a pump for her to continue getting chemo until tomorrow afternoon. She said she felt kinda tired this morning. I believe this is the same kind of chemo my grandfather had, and he didn't lose his hair and now my mom is saying the doctor said she probably won't lose her hair, which is good!

Working with my organization, which is a very big, national, non-profit doing cancer research and providing MANY resources and services for all cancer patients, I've learned so much and it's really helping me cope with my mom's diagnosis.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers! It really has meant a lot to me!
