from BGGN!

Happy New Year!  I started on my first dose of Avastin last week and so far so good.  No side effects, as everyone predicted.  I’m having routine labs done weekly to monitor “things” and will have a CA125 just prior to my next infusion on January 30th.  My oncologist said the best way to know if it’s working or not will be changes in my CA125 or an increase in symptoms. Waiting and wondering ... sigh ...

Sunday, Paul and I are off to Northern California for a brief visit with my brother Gene and then with Paul’s brother, John.  Home for a week and off to Mississippi for 2 weeks to take care of my mother so my sister can take a much deserved vacation in Hawaii.  Otherwise, all is quiet on the Western front.

Love you all,
Nyshie
