I hope we all have a beautiful day!

Good morning everyone, I am sitting here drinking my coffee reading everyones posts today, and I have replied to alot of them. I have called people by the wrong names LOL, its coffee time. But I hope that today is a beautiful day for all of us! I think I'm in a good mood because I started treatment recently and I get a break from radiation today because my back and chest are fried. So that means no 60 mile round trip today. I can stay home and clean house and do whatever I want. I do have a question though, my first round of chemo I had afflactic shock to taxil, so I only get carboplatin every monday. Is it normal that they didn't give me another chemo with the carbo? I feel that if I have to go through this I want to give it 100% My doctor acted like just the one chemo is enough? But the girls that give it to me every Mon. said they thought another one would be added to it? Kelly
